Suggestion: This Month's Birthdays
So we could have one birthday thread each month for all of them

Yes, they do die quite quickly in the OT unless the birthday ****er keeps bumping it due to massive ego problems.

And better in the OT where posts don't count.

Having a composite ibe here would probably start a +1er feeding frenzy. It would never dissappear off the first page.

And having it in A/C wouldn't work anyway, because OT'ers won't see it and then post individual birthday threads anyway.

I feel sorry for the people who don't get birthday threads, when quite clearly they deserve them.

I was just pre-empting anyone who felt left out at never having had a birthday thread.

Lets post a bug birthsday thread with all the users in it every year... Everybody could spam one or two names of the list...

I don't really see your point.

This is probably UR's finest hour.

Seeing as I got a birthday thread this year, I am totally against this idea! Totally!

Wait, you said this will be in the community forum?

Well I never, but that was due to choice.
I changed my profile when my birthday came up.


Yes, Ming is somewhat slow on the trigger today. Where's his obligatory quote and comment?

I'd rather have my own birthday thread. That would make me feel much more special.

DrSpike,




rah,

What I meant was, instead having a list of birthdays on the front page everyday, have a list every month (starting from the 1st of that month). So there's only one birthday thread for everybody in the OT. Of course, people can always start them there, there are no rules against that

I agree... this would be great (I don't check out the "Todays birtdays" everyday)

Yes me too, expecially when the site is not responding quickly, I usually a shortcut straight to the forums to save time, so I don't see the Apolyton home page.
