Email isn't added because there's no toggle to display it or not.
You don't have to have it pull information from elsewhere like the IM handles. Just make it work like the "About Me" or "Interests" section. You type something in, it shows up. You leave it blank, it doesn't.
It'd be nice for it to be flexible like that anyways. People can decide that way if they'd want their contact e-mail to be different than the e-mail they have associated with their FFR account.
Maybe somehow add the membernumber to the URL link of regular profiles
I never played NotFFRon but was the user ID all you needed from the forum profiles? You can find the ID in the url when you PM a user.
For instance, clicking "PM HammyMcSquirrel" or "Send a private message to HammyMcSquirrel" will show you my user ID in the url of the page that is loaded.
You can also find the ID in the file name of someone's avatar. It'll be the first set of numbers before the underscore. (The second set is the version of their avatar. So if mine said 100, that would mean it is my 100th avatar uploaded.)
There are other ways to find the user ID but I think those methods would be the most convenient.
One of the questions iirc is "who was the 1,000,000th user"
This was easily found out by just going through the forum profiles. Now though that question has become a hell of a lot harder than intended because the forum profile link redirects

That can actually still be figured out just as easily without the forum profiles.
I guess I shouldn't say exactly how, so this screenshot should help.

i never got why forum profiles were removed though, why get rid of something that wasnt messing with the site?
Redundancy and it's less for mods to have to keep an eye on.
