    Have you noticed?

    Have you guys noticed yet that in the Calender section it lists your birthday and age if you provide your DOB in your profile. I must say that is pretty cool.

    Since you can put in your birth year, I wonder how far it can go back? I could put that I was born in 1200 AD and it would say I'm 800 years old!

    Unfortunately it won't accept dates early enough for that. I tried putting in my actual birth date (215BC) and it left the age off my calender entry.

    I tried moving it forward to 1900 and the age still wasn't showing up. I know people who the board would reject based on age! Sounds like a lawsuit in the waiting...

    Calader Weirdness

    Something weird I noticed. If I go to my birthday (September 15) and click on my name it goes to a profile of sorts. The profile, however, lists my birthday as December 31, 1969 which is incorrect. September 15, 1962 would be correct. Has anybody else noted an error like this?

    Of course I do feel 7 years younger just using this wonderful new board.

    Sounds like a bug in the way vBulletin is handing off gmtime() to the OS. December 31, 1969 is the UNIX epoch which everyone is the start of time as we know it.

    I really like the calendar, but one thing I noticed is that there are a CRAP-LOAD of people born in May.
    Early September must have been a VERY romantic time of year...

    No, you're just long-lived. It's just that none of us has tried to kill you yet. :)
