That bug with your settings is fixed. An errant <p>. forwardslash implemented a faster parser for our markup last week and this was related. This thing has been a bear, but we are in a much better place. I agree with you and doesntgolf. "interested in" sucks. I often look at mine and think: oh, really? Social algorithms are built to fail. As b_b said, it was in response to a expressed need, but it doesn't succeed at filling it. I like veen's idea of previous dialogs/interactions. That, I would find interesting. I visit your profile, and I can see what we last chatted about. Maybe a link like: "Chatted with: 13 days ago". When you click the link, you see all of your previous discussions with that user. That kind of information is much more interesting and useful than an algorithm that can grow stale or miss the mark. That might not be the ideal implementation, but something along those lines. Simply listing the tags you've used is probably more useful than "interested in" for a new user checking you out.
