If you really willingly provide accurate personal information about yourself every time someone ask those from you, you gonna have troubles sooner or later.

I'm sorry that you both feel that way.

I did not find any useful information in this thread. Its a lot easier to explain the bug than bashing people unknowing of it.

Also. The name, birth and adress information are required by the Drupal database (responsible for the main site) rather than by VBulletin database. Otherwise I'd have fixed it already.
I've looked around the admin controls for the site a while ago, but could not find any way to make these fields non-mandatory. :notrust:

So we're stuck with it at least for the time being.
Aha I see that Studentis.com the Swedish company is supplying this service. http://www.studentis.com/?q=sv/node/22 The information was not apparent on the site I fear.



I sent the following message to the devs btw, hopefully this issue will be resolved soon I will update once I get any responses.

Greetings

Im not certain that you are aware of this issue but it is quite annoying
for new members of this great community. As a visitor I highly appreciate
all the work dedicated into this website and would like to eventually
contribute to it.

I ran across an error on the profile configuration on "my account" page.

It appears that a lot of information is mandatory and that you need to
supply your real name and domestic address in order to change your
password.

Could you please update this section? I fear the issue may discourage
other interested contributors of the community.

I made a post on the forum concerning this issue here:

Kind Regards
