Ivan, good job on putting back the fans and connections in the band-profiles, though I discovered a bug.

I couldn't resist checking out Behemoth's profile for the fans, and saw this list:

Vinterblot
Kurzag
C-Dub
Nervel
Baz Anderson
Nokkkkkkkkkkkkk etc.

Nothing wrong with that list, but if you click on 'Vinterblot' to see his profile it says: Error! No user is selected.
When I then go back, and click on the second name, Kurzag, it goes to Ivan's profile. When I go back again, and click on C-Dub, it goes to Blackgir's profile.

Also, when I click on the first name 'Vinterblot' my Internet Explorer says: Busy loading www.metalstorm.ee/etc. etc. user_id=0

With Kurzag, second in line it says: .... user_id=1. With C-Dub it says: .... user_id=2 and so on, and so on.

Seems like a big bug. Hope I explained clearly enough, and that you can do something about it.

Fixed, thanks!

Ok, good. No problem.

Not sure where else to put this but the heading fits...

The band Psycroptic has been added as a invisible band. I have the band in my profile for 'favourite bands' and when looking at the band profile hours before i was listed under 'fans', good so far... but just now when i edited my favourite bands *Psycroptic still IN my favourite list* i went and looked in the bands profile and i was not long under the fans part.

Psycroptic are still under my favourite bands in my profile, so just wondering why im not appearing in their fans list anymore. Note: i have double check that it is spelt correctly.

Hope its clear what im trying to say

Theoretically, invisible bands shouldn't have the list of fans - apparently the band has been briefly activated at some point, which caused the fans list to appear - and then the status was changed back to invisible.

and here comes my problem. Xasthur is not an active band, right? still I'm listed as a fan. but this doesn't happen in the case of Leviathan too, although I added the band in my profile, and Leviathan has an acitive fanlist.

That explains it, thanks

I found another problem/bug about the fanlist. I can't explain it, so I will give an example:
If you go to Axxis (band) profile, you'll see that there are 3 fans.
You'll also see the that "Axxis fans also like: Helloween"
The problem here is, that the 3 fans also like Iron Maiden and Blind Guardian, which are not featured though, in the "Also like" list. I've noticed that happening elsewhere too...

Finally found the problem - just a stupid little mistake from my side. Fixed now.

How do you fan a band?

How do you fan a band?

You just add them to your favorite bands in your profile. Only 40 "fans" are shown in the band page, these are the fans with the most posts.
See, you're listed here

Perhaps, but i dont have a clue how Cavalera Conspiracy got there

You probably clicked on "+Fav" accidentally. Go to 'Edit profile', you can edit the list of your favorite bands there.
