Nonsense UR, unlose that backside.

They are prominent posters, and deserve a thread, I have started them in the past for my friends, and have had one for me (and one for my SO as well!)

I fully support Provost, Dis and Gianni havimg their moment.

As long as the people mentioned are reasonably active posters, I have no problems with B-Day threads.

The fact that three people had B-Days on the same day is just chance.

If I see that it is starting to get abused, I'll just delete the ones that aren't appropriate

actually my birthday was one day earlier than PH's.

I'm older and wiser of course

yeah long as no one goes thru the birthday's list and makes a thread for everyone on there (including DL's and inactive posters), I don't see a problem.

Of course I'm just saying that because I got a birthday thread.

And I'm liking my Neverwinter Nights present.

I usually don't care about these ego-stroking threads, but having three in the same day is a bit too many.

They can have their moment just as well in a thread titled "Happy Birthday Dissident, Provost Harrison, and Fez."

I don't care about birthday threads. I spent my birthday having dinner with my family, then spent the rest of the night with my beautiful Sunshine Girl.
