I know it's not that big of a deal, but don't I even rate a mention in the "Today's Birthdays" section? I figure after turning 21 for the second time, I earned at least a note. Sheesh!

I've always thought that the birthday cake thing was cool. Let's everyone know on all your posts that it's your bday. [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img]

The cake is there but maybe what he's referring to is at the top of the forums main page in the "Extra info box" among some other info it says: "There are no birthdays today."
Why that is, I don't know.

I think that Jason posted in another thread about the "There are no birthdays today", that he had disabled the listing because it took too many resources. I can imagine if it listed all of the 40,000+ members that had a birthday on a particular day, there wouldn't be any screen space left over for the forums. Might work for a site with a couple hundred members, but not here.
I did a search of this topic in this forum and found that thread where Jason did answer this issue.
Trying to post the link does not come out right for some reason. It isn't coding correctly. Anyway, it's in this forum in a thread titled "57,119 MEMBERS" from last September.
