Linking your profile with the official Embrace messageboard

If you post on the official Embrace messageboard, we'd like to know about it and who you post as. This will enable visitors to find messageboarders' profiles on the Fan Directory and to link your personality across the two sites. You may provide the name you post under, as well as an ID so we can provide a link to your profile on the messageboard.

To find your ID, go to the Embrace messageboard and click the 'Profile' option at the bottom of one of your messages. Your ID is the collection of numbers at the end of the address in the address bar in your browser.

Location of the Messageboard Profile ID

In this example, the ID is 41.

If you wish for your profile to be found in this way, please enter your full or partial postcode into the box below. Your postcode will never be displayed on the site and no other user will have access to this information.
