This is no longer just a fluke that affected my profile, I have now seen at least 10 other profiles in passing that have been snipped.
ANG's profile now shows up with "..." at the end and no longer includes his resume,credits, or web links.
levmyshkin also ends with "..." -but I had assumed this was just a trailing end to the profile.
Thoughts on the issue: it is very possible that this occurs when someone returns to their profile to enter in their Flickr user ID and the profile editing page (with the content) might not be bringing back all of the information, then saving it back when you don't click save...or when you do click save on the other tab.
I only mention that because I had made other changes to my profile when I suddenly saw it get truncated. I am curious if ANG and/or levmyshkin added Flickr to their profile recently, or something else...thus the issue with the profile container.
Edit: apologies! publicreader's profile is not showing "..." it was levmyshkin

Okay, I think I just ruled out the idea that making a change to the profile causes it to get truncated. I just logged in and headed to my page to check "tracking" and what do I see? My profile is now truncated again. I did not edit my profile or make any changes today.
ANG did adjust my permissions today, and I see that levmyshkin is a wrangler, maybe the issue is with changing permissions on users? It might be possible that ANG's profile was truncated when he was mad a super editor.

Thanks for letting us know.
I went into my own profile and removed the ellipsis, re-entering what (I think) used to be there before; upon saving, the page reverted to its original state.
I'm forwarded this issue to our development team... nobody truncates MY profile!!!

What would you say if I told you...yours is truncated again? :)

... I would weep bitter, bitter tears...
Good thing I forwarded this to the dev team; I may well run out of tissues and have to use my sleeve.

Bump.
Problem happened over the weekend again. Jordan, ANG, Ryan, Dave, me...and more, all truncated. Any thoughts as to what's up with the database?
(fwiw: Kaitlin, MT, MM, LB all seemed to be fine)
