I was thinking, maybe people could get premium for like a day or two for their birthday, or maybe even a few hours. But I thought this would be a cool idea. Maybe do a test run for a week or so and see how it goes.
But the birthdays are literally listed at the bottom of the forum page. So even if they do lie about their official one, it'll show only once a yearPeople tend to lie about stuff on the internet, like birthdays O__o
There are certain events in which an administrator would give people Premium membership for a few days so I doubt this would be implemented.
I think that happened to me last week honestly, my notifications were showed by a scroll looking thing and my CP changed. It was my first thought but then I checked my name and it wasn't purple.People tend to lie about stuff on the internet, like birthdays O__o

Yes, they are listed. That being said, users can freely change their birthday on NB. If you look again, you'll see my name is also now listed, even though a moment ago my birthday was set to November. As it stands, it's just way too exploitable.But the birthdays are literally listed at the bottom of the forum page. So even if they do lie about their official one, it'll show only once a year
Oh wow, you're right. It would probably only work then if we make it so Birthdates can't be changed

Why? You can even hide your birthday for privacy reasons. There was never a reason to make you unable to change your birthday.Should have been done to start with if you ask me
I can understand being able to hide a birthday but nobody can literally change their birthday. The only reason I can think of other than for attention is if someone gave their account to another person.1) You can change your birthday
2) There's no guarantee it's even the real birthday
3) We have got over 160k accounts, many of which are dead, banned or inactive.
This is neither doable nor is there any merit in it.
