Corresponding with a forum maintenance scheduled for June 28th, 2011, users of the Final Fantasy XI official website will be able to link their forum profiles to their FFXI character information, allowing the display of character and world names, as well as the jobs and levels of up to three jobs selected by the forum user.

Discuss this on the Zam Forums

From the official Final Fantasy XI forums:

We would like to announce a new function enabling players to link character data to their forum profiles. This feature will go live as part of the FINAL FANTASY XI Forum maintenance scheduled for June 28, 2011.

At present, players are required to use a Square Enix ID when logging into the forums. Characters on the PlayOnline ID associated with this Square Enix ID will now be displayed in forum profiles. Players with more than one character registered to their account may select which character to link.

After logging into the forums following the maintenance, players will be taken to the Profile Settings screen and asked to choose an active character. Forum posts cannot be made until a character has been selected.

Forum profiles will now display the following:
- Character name
- World name
- Up to three jobs and levels of a player's choosing
* The above information cannot be hidden.

Players will retain forum handles.
