Respectively, your point is highly regarded.
If you're trying to insult me, please look up the definition of the word "regarded." :roll:

The point you seem to have missed is that in order for suggestions to be effective, they must be made to the correct people. Your idea for adding features to phpBB needs to be made to them for the suggestion to have any hope of being considered.

Thus;
BE or NOT TO BE are two equivalent phases

A lad was suggested to look both sides of a road, and then cross it. He made it.
One who wasnt told, never made it back home. Suggestion TRANSFORMS INTO contribution.
Making a suggestion to the boy's pet iguana would be useless. The suggestion must be made to the boy. In this case, the boy (the people behind phpBB) would probably consider the suggestion for one or two seconds, before rejecting it.

Would Custom Profile Fields be sufficient? They are included in phpBB by default.

See phpBB Documentation - adding Custom Profile Fields.

Hello ComputerBob:
These days, pretty much busy, than to learn English. :wink:
2. Well, it is not intended in any way, or by any means to insult any old-bie, though it happened at my end to some new-bies; who didnt googled, before asking (it shouldnt have happened either). :roll:

Thankyou Sir Randicus: it was intended to be a joint venture in forum, rather than a personal one. :)
