Re: Date of Birth Added to Member List
Hmmm, something about being born on March 28 in 1983 makes you a likely candidate for suspension. Can Karloskasta's suspension be far off?
Missed that one. All four of those recent suspensions are likely the same person (or same syndicate).
This time I added an indicator of who did the suspension (in the reasons). If you think that a good idea, I'll do the same for the other two I recently suspended. Or perhaps the suspender info should be made automatically available, at least to admins.

Re: Date of Birth Added to Member List
No surprise, Jar is our oldest member, born on the first day of the new year way back in 1886! He was in the audience at Dayton, heard at one point to be muttering, "I'll rock your ages..."
That's not 1886 I'll have you know.

I think we should put it in the Forum Guidelines that spammers are required to all register under the same birthday.
This time I added an indicator of who did the suspension (in the reasons). If you think that a good idea, I'll do the same for the other two I recently suspended. Or perhaps the suspender info should be made automatically available, at least to admins.
Now that you mention it, the moderator taking the action should probably be recorded automatically. Something for the next release.

Uh, yes it is - check your profile.
It's understandable that someone of your great, uh, maturity would forget his own birthday. Why don't you just go ahead and change it to something you think's about right.

Re: Date of Birth Added to Member List
I tried to but it won't accept just 86.

Changing the case in your member name...
With the release of dBoard 2.0 member names became case insensitive. This means that if your member name is "Footloose" that it doesn't matter whether you type "footloose" or "FOOTLOOSE" when you log in, they'll both work.
Regardless of how you log in your name will always be displayed the way it is stored in the database, but you can change this through your profile page. Simply define a new alias using the case you want.
For example, let's say your member name is "footloose", but you want to change it to "Footloose". Just go to your profile page and enter "Footloose" on the Define New Alias line. Then click on Submit Modifications and the change will be made. It won't actually define a new alias, since "footloose" and "Footloose" are actually the same name, but it will replace "footloose" with "Footloose", and now your member name will be displayed everywhere as "Footloose".
