My problem is strangers (not you guys) being able to see my birthdate. There has been too much identity theft.

Good point Ravenwing.

Perhaps an option in the control panel that allows you to display or not display your birthday on the frontpage might be a good solution. I will give it some thought and see how difficult it will or won't be!

or maybe even as a whole to display or not even in forum maybe if possible have 2 options one for front page and one for forum in case a user just doesn't want the age displayed anywhere.

For me it's irrelevent I could careless if folks know my age. smile.gif

I'm 4 and holding I just refuse to grow up LOL laugh.gif tongue.gif biggrin.gif tongue.gif laugh.gif

I would suggest just keeping it friendly and simple. Post those who have a birthday that choose to list it in their profile. Still gives those who wish to send them a greeting without any identity problems. No need for any ages to be shown. It's the celebration that counts - not the age.

I agree with RavenWing.
Seriously, I don't care if you guys know my age (soon to be 42) and I agree with Scottish 2 that posting an age allows us to know each pther better. (Sister A, you as always, are the exception) But I worry as well about identity theft. I'd like to be trusting of all, but unfortunately that isn't the care of some. Then again, if you keep your credit cards maxed out, how much can anyone steal? laugh.gif

See my brother really knows me! I'll always be 18. I had a client who hollered across the salon the other day and said: Annabelle when are you ever going to grow up?
I looked up at her and said "Are you talken to me?"

It's always a lift when everyone knows its your birthday and you are bubbly for the day. ofcourse having a setting in the personal settings that would allow those who don't care for it would be appropriate if birthdays were shown.

I think it is a great idea to post birthdays on the front page. It lets us all know who has a special day that day. That is important to people, especially when you consider we all get to know each other pretty well on here and we would like to know when their special day is.............as long as their year is not posted. However, I don't have a problem with anybody knowing my age. I may be vain, but not that much! However, I do have a concern about identity theft. unsure.gif
