You don't need any queries, roxics. You can use this instead:

PHP Code:

function chkprofilefields($userid, $fieldnumber) {
    global $DB_site, $bbuserinfo;
  
    if ($bbuserinfo['userid'] == $userid) {
        $field = $bbuserinfo['field'.$fieldnumber];
    } else {
        $userinfo = getuserinfo($userid);
        $field = $userinfo['field'.$fieldnumber];
    }

    if (empty($field)) {
        eval('standarderror("'.gettemplate('error_emptyrequiredfields').'");');
    }
} 


This will only generate a query if it's used not on the browsing user.
