Ok, but seriously. I think it would be cool if these forums had like little birthday announcements like other forums do. Considering that people buy in-game gifts for one another, I think it would be even more appropriate on this website than any other!

Basically, you'd look at their profile and it would let you know there birthday was that day. You're at FFXIAH anyways, maybe you should buy them something! To make sure it's not exploited you could make it to where it could only be set once and after that an admin would have to change it :)

Thoughts?

Oh, and if anyone's wondering, I'll be 29; and if anyone wants to get me something, I'm partial to Alexandrite, LOL!

Blah blah, you missed the point. Whatcha think about being able to put our birthdays up in our profiles? Birthdays have an economical impact both in real life and in the game. So why not?

soliciting presents should be a crime punishable by asswhooping. if nobody likes you enough to remember your birthday, chances are nobody likes you enough to get you a present. and besides, shouldnt you be out doing something on your birthday if you care that much?

Um, ok you missed the point. No, I won't be home on my birthday. Well, maybe in the morning. But I have the whole weekend planned. The idea is that birthdays are cogs in the machine that is the economy. I think they should be a part of the website.

might want to post it in the Suggestion part of the Forum would have made it more clear

and pretty much the reason why we all missed the point

and the Thread Title could have been a "little" more direct if you know what I mean

(Add age to profile!?!) and we tend to tl: dr to the extreme at times

meh its the internet =o what did you expect from us

says it all.

BTW Gaea, where in the hell are my birthday presents for the last 26 years? You ain't getting ***for your birthday until I get payback from those years you forgot about me.

Besides, I hate birthdays. My mother broke her leg twice on my birthday (once when I was 12, second time when I was 17) My father got mugged on another once (I think I was 8 at the time) and my sister got hit by a car (I was 16).

Only good birthday I had was my 23rd which I bought myself a round trip ticket to Tokyo and spent 2 weeks there, which I saved up for 6 months working overtime just to do that.

Otherwise, my birthdays have been ***.

That's a Daily thing for her i bet^.~, You might wanna try a little harder :P

On a side note, I don't think anyone would care enough to get people in game presents unless it was friends in the linkshell you liked. I wouldn't go looking for some random persons birthday to send them a Blue Hobby bo or something, and honestly I don't have the gil to dish out to give someone a birthday present everyday.

Everyone misses your "points" gaea because you hide them in other garbage that no one will ever take the rest of it seriously.

I can't believe you'd insult Dumbo like that. ; ; He's so adorable!

Hello ^^ I believe the OP is ok with her thoughts about having birthdays on the site, she is asking for your input about it and I suggest you stay to the topic. If she feels that she would like to suggest it later to the admins on the suggestion thread, she will when she was seeing how you all felt of it.

Thanks^^

The most i can do is make a char on your server, and send you my adventure's coupon. Will that work :D lol.

Naw but I don't think enough people would want to do it and it doesnt make that much of a differnce but like Alyria said.
