    Suggestion: Add a section for "Half Birthdays" Under the members tab at the top of the home page., to the right.

    Reason: There are sections for "Birthdays" and "Newest Players", I just thought that this could be a neat little addition, if it isn't too hard to code that is.

    Any Other Information: Nice little addition, shouldn't be too hard to code? Plus I don't really think of this as a birthday, more a milestone.

    Edit: I meant half-birthdays as in 6 months after you joined the forums, such as when you would get the 0.5, 1.5, 2.5, 3.5. etc. awards. Your name would show up in a box just like birthdays, but unlike a birthday this is more like a milestone.

    Why would we need to add a half birthday section?

    I like the idea but don't see how it's necessary. But it would be nice anyway :)

    Why do we need a Birthdays section? Again this is just a little addition that isn't really necessary though it would be cool to have, like the richest members under the sportsbook tab.

    People generally don't "celebrate half birthdays" I personally see no reason to add this

    At first I had no idea what this even meant. Then I remembered this was important when we were young - nobody wanted to be seven - they could not wait until they were seven and a half. Those were the days!
    Would it be possible to code this to only do half years until 13 years of age? I know personally, half years are not important to me anymore :p

    And to everyone, I know this is kind of pointless though if it wasn't hard to code and wasn't considered a waste of a programmers time, it would be a neat little addition.

    Maybe up to 9 years of age. No one at 10 years really is like "OMG IT'S MY HALF BIRTHDAY OMG IT TOOK SO LONG, LIKE A WHOLE YEAR BUT HALF OF THAT OMG!" :p

    Yeah -1 from me. There comes and age where birthdays are rarely even remembered let alone half birthdays... I'm only 18 and couldn't give a damn when my 19th is.

    Interesting suggestion but overall, not really needed. If you really want to celebrate a half-birthday tell your friends either IRL or on ECC directly :)

    I certainly never had a 'half birthday' when I was little... it seems strange. But, I also grew up knowing the Alice in Wonderland story, and the idea that on all the days that weren't actually your birthday, well, they were just your 'unbirthdays'.

    Sorry if that was confusing!

    Bit clearer now. You get awards for these via trophies on your profile though. +0/-0.

    Wait, I actually am not sure if the birthday section is an in real life birthday, or a forum anniversary. If it is real life birthday, there should be a section for forum anniversary.
