I do know that there was once a calender for members' birthdays (but when I got to the forums it wasn't there). I heard that it was taken down because it was hardly ever used. But I have another idea about displaying birthdays. I've seen this lots on other forums, so I thought it'd be a nice idea to try here as well. So, at the bottom of most forums that I've seen, after or before it tells you who's online it normally says something a bit like this:
Users Having a Birthday Today: -insert name here-
Birthdays Within the Next Month: -insert name here- (insert day the birthday is on)
Example:
Users Having a Birthday Today: ~Stargazer~
Birthdays Within the Next Month: ~RedSun~ (30th)
I hope you understand what I mean, if you have anything to add to thing, or any reason to not add this to the forum, just post a reply.
EDIT: Lord has just brought up a good point. Their are lots of members. To be exact, 208,035 members. That many birthday threads would be insane. So we would have to come up with a way to only display the active users. What do you think of displaying users that have been active during the last week or users that have over 25 posts. Seems like a somewhat reasonable idea, but we may need to change it.
