    Default Coincidence?

    I was going to send happy birthday messages to today's birthdays and found something a bit strange. There is supposedly several birthdays and none of the members have posted yet. I just thought this a bit far fetched, since there are so many. No need to comment unless you are one of the birthday people, then I want to say I hope you had a happy one.

    Keep in mind, members come and go over the years. The members who have birthdays today may not be active users any longer.

    I think it's safe to say that member Blowopon won't have any hurt feelings if we skip right over and miss his birthday.

    Maybe we can have FV National Spammer Day and pay tribute to them all at once. LOL

    True, but there are 13 birthdays and they have all joined in the last 2 months and not one of them have posted even once. That just seems weird too me. KWIM?

    It's making me laugh, yet it's so not funny.

    Maybe you should start a new membership condition, the applicant has to donate a pint of blood. They would have to send proof from an accreditd lab of your choosing of course. This poor sap would be a gonner. Someone didn't have anything to celebrate evidently. I hope they got carpal tunnel.

    Well, it is kind of an honour that they chose THIS site to spam. It must threaten them somehow. (And I donated my pint yesterday, so my "dues" are paid up for the year.)

    Today the birthdays aren't all spammers. Maybe there's some sort of default birthday thing going on. LOL I'll have to look further into it.
