I just looked at the People Pages, and I don’t see any checks by the user names. The list of names used to be who was on the People Pages, but there was a glitch and many pics were lost. They are in the process of being restored.

Secondly, just so you know, the People Pages isn’t run by the Chicago Reader and not really affiliated with the Straight Dope, the message board, or the Chicago Reader at all. It’s a site run independently by fellow posters.

This may be frightfully ignorant, but here goes: Where are the people pages? Is there a link somewhere?

Actually I think Shera is refering to a different “people pages”. Doesn’t opal have a page with doper pics? I think that is the one with check marks. I cannot find it right now.
