This thread is for anyone who wishes to wish their fellow board members a happy birthday! Our board is getting so large that to give each member their own thread is taking up a lot of space.
In the future, please keep all birthday wishes right here.
Well, I really like the idea of everyone having their own birthday thread since it makes them feel… special, I guess. But if the birthday threads clutter up the boards, then maybe this is the best way.
Rachel: I know what you mean, but I never felt special. I just felt that people wanted to just up their post counts, because even those who hated me wished me a happy birthday. It felt … well, phony. (no pun intended )
Not like those who hate me won’t wish me a happy birthday now that it’s compiled, anyways.
Yeah I have to go with Rachelcakes on this one. I felt special and it made me happy to know that someone cared enough to make me a thread. I mean, how often does someone make a thread about you? Probably almost never outside of your birthday. But I’m not the one running this show so if you feel it’s better to economize then I dont have much choice in that.
Uh, I understand how this can clean up some clutter…but I liked it better when everyone had their own personal birthday thread. [No offense.]
How about this? Every time it’s a different member’s b-day, someone add that member’s name to the title ASAP. That way, it can make that person at least feel special. Some people might not realize this thread exists, and on their b-day, expect a b-day thread, and be depressed to find nothing…
Have a rockin’ b-day, uruseiranma and Sid Phillips!
That’s why it’s been stickied. In fact, rather than letting someone’s birthday thread fall to the second page, this thread is now easier for everyone to find.
Yeah, sure I’m going to miss having my own birthday thread, too, but this’ll be better in the long run.
AJD08, have a terrific birthday! Get out there and celebrate it!
Also, knowing that there were some birthdays I missed (because there’s one every day, and there’s not a daily post here), Happy b-day to you, anyone I missed (you know who you are).
