Has Poly a maximum age for members ?

[BlackCat]

My profile claims that my birthday is 31 dec 1969, which is 10 years too little, but if I try to correct it, the form have the right year.

Is this a special feature made for female members or did the programmer think that old people would never use the internet ?

Hi BlackCat.

I hadn't noticed that error before, nor has anyone reported it to the best of my knowledge. It is a programming error on the part of those who developed vBulletin, our forum software. I'll point our tech. team to this thread for further assistance.

Hope you're enjoying the site.

[BlackCat]

Yeah, my thougth too about the problem - default values and limits can give funny results

Well, spamming the OT and doing some serious postings in SMAC/X for more than two years, well, I like the site and the nutcases that comes here (me included)

That seems like a forum software bug indeed. Interestingly, the control panel shows your birth year as being 1959 - correctly - in the database.

It's the same for me, I noticed this a couple of years ago, anyone born after 1970 has the correct date. It's the same problem as the join date.

ACK!

So Markos was demoted from Technical Director to "tech. team"?

I guess you don't like Solver then...

[Solver]

Okay, the problem should now be fixed .

[Eli]

Ahhh, so there's also a Technical Assistant.

I think you should hire someone as Morale Raiser. I don't think a 40 years old truckers who pretends to be an 18 years old stripper will be expensive.

We already have b etor, a 30-something FBI agent pretending to be a horny 15 year old girl .

But another seems to have been created.

My stated birthday has been turned around, day+month-wise. It's 7 November, but my profile now gives it as 11 July. I imagine I'm not the only one experiencing this.

[Solver]

I blame the American habit of writing the month first .

That's fixed now, too.

[BlackCat]

Thanks - it was quite annoying to be taken as some youngster

If you think the month problem is annoying, then try to mess with their stupid weeknumbering

Now, don't touch anything else!

[Solver]

Sure won't .
