Default January 1st Birthdays problem

This is just a "head's up." There are about 2500 members who have their birthday set at the default "January 1, 1901.

This means that the birthday list at the bottom of the front page is going to be loaded with birthdays on New Years Day, and birthday emails are automatically sent to the birthday members.

Please go to your UserCP > Edit Your Details and check your birthday and make sure it is correct!

Thank You!

Sometimes when I go detecting all day, I do feel like I'm 108!

Haha, that's true. My arm, knees and shoulders are sore from a couple days ago. But I keep telling myself that I can't complain: My great-grandmother is 103 almost 104, and still very alert. Amazing! HH

Considering there are something like 3000 members with zero posts I doubt this figure goes much lower. I kinda doubt those people have been setting their birthday data....

Exactly Voriax. But we're hoping these emails, once sent out, will encourage old members to return.

If they don't come back and visit in the next week or so, all of these old birthday dates and/or members will be changed or deleted.

Thanks for fixing yours agbkyle...

Default Jan 1st b-days

Sad thing is that someone's birthday might actually BE January 1st.
Happy Birthday to you that actually DO have January 1st birthdays!
