Birthday - December 1st?

sneekymum

Is this some sort of code? (on the Profile page)

- I tend only to look at profiles if someone seems particularly knowledgable about a subject - and often the only information about them is

Birthday December 1st.

Perhaps all the clever people in the world were born on that day...

lol, that would explain why i was born in the latter end of the month although not right at the end

default birthday of the software is 1st December unless you go in and change via your profile

sneekymum ... you've piqued my curiosity .. why is their birthday relevant to their knowledge

Edinburghlass_2

I would guess that because all, (score that out, my birthday isn't 1 Dec )
the knowledgeable people whose profiles she has checked show the default birthday as 1 December...

oh_heck

and if anyones isnt 1st december it means they have taken the time out to put a bit of effort into making a profile.. i put a few details in abt me . like were i live which i find helpful in others post when they say in my local store , if they dont put in were they live how do i know were local is lol

Ah, I see! *nods knowingly*

Question 2: If knowing a person's birthday is of value ... why hasn't the OP included one? Does this mean ... she doesn't exist? :eek:

All I can say Miss Queenie, is you are far too young to be reading these forums, away and watch CBBC :rotfl:

Yes, you're right I'm not at all sure I exist. But if you have enough faith I'll achieve a solid form one day. Or just a cold spot you may walk through and shiver. :A

But knowing a birthday is not my goal of looking at profiles - if someone lists themselves as an accountant I might have more faith in what they have writen (about financial things..but not medical stuff, or electrical...(etc))

Its just that most people I've looked at have a birthday of December 1st - and I've looked because they seem to know what they're taking about. I should look at some stupid people's profiles to see if its the same.

The big question is not "Why should someone change the default?" but why they should select to show the birthday if its not the correct one...
