Equinox Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Really, make one thread and bump it, this is retarded.
Hy Bound Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Yay! I'm glad someone else was annoyed as well. ...though my problem with it is prolly cuz i never got a happy birthday thread...
jmr Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 I hereby claim this thread in the name of all of those who's birthdays were not deemed notable enough to merit a thread.
DrumUltimA Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 that's fine and all, but I'm going to need my own thread come my birthday. you understand.
Gollgagh Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 That's what I've been saying for the past month.
Skrypnyk Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 I agree. Or even better, PM the person a happy birthday. It'll be that much more special :3
!Nekko! Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Whatever happened to the master birthday thread that used to be in Unmod, anyway? Probably answered my own question, right there.
Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Yeah, why the hell isn't there a big birthday thread like there used to be? More importantly, why do you all feel the need to make a thread about a day that is probably insignificant to almost every other poster here(no offense, it's just that we don't know who you are. This IS the internet after all). These things are on the same level of fad threads at this point.
Majin GeoDooD Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 that's fine and all, but I'm going to need my own thread come my birthday. you understand. I agree. Doug and I share the same birthday and for the past couple years he's gotten a thread and I haven't, so this year I'm going to need my own thread too.
The Pezman Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Or even better, PM the person a happy birthday. It'll be that much more special :3 Somehow I don't think that will pan out for those of us who aren't OMGURAWSUM popular on this site.
zircon Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Agreed, I was going to talk to the other staff about this today. Not sure if we'll limit everything to one thread or what, yet.
The Pezman Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Some of us have a birthday coming up very soon...
zircon Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 We're not making a birthday subforum. Look, I hate to say it, but every single forum member does not deserve their own thread. Not even every remixer does. We're all thinking this, but no one wants to say it. We simply have too many for that to be realistic, and now that it's the new fad, the forum is getting clogged.
MechaFone Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 I guess it is getting a bit out of hand, isn't it? Not that I mind, personally. Kinda makes ya feel special, both getting a thread and making one. Still, I suppose in the interest of all involved, it would be best to make a single thread and bump it come time for birthdays. And to think, I coulda had my own thread in a month.

zircon Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 I'm not going to make up a new forum policy without asking other site staff, foo.
norg Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 yes, because having SO MANY BIRTHDAY THREADS is a HUGE STRAIN ON THE SERVER and the amount of time it takes to ignore them is a huge burden on our psyches. seriously. almost every forum i am a part of has a birthday thread for individual users. maybe it's just me, but i find the notion that having individual threads for users who celebrate their birthdays equating to a cause for some form of burden of to be hilariously retarded. hilariously. retarded. -= george =-
Arek the Absolute Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 i like this norg guy i echo what he says and add that larry has been doing it for a while. no need to change it up unnecessarily

One thread, one compilation, problem solved. Don't be a rebel, don't be a dick.
kitty Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 Happy birthday threads are nice in thought but are totally unnecessary. I'm tired of coming onto the main page to check the last 5 topic bumped and three out of the five are birthday threads.
Spunodi Posted April 15, 2008 Posted April 15, 2008 I too would like to wish NEEDS TO STOP a very happy birthday and look forward to many future contributions from NEEDS TO STOP to this community.
