Topic: [Feature/Denied] the possibility of having a birthday list for each day

Posted under Site Bug Reports & Feature Requests

This topic has been locked.

hey i was wondering if theres any way to add a list of the days birthdays somewhere on the site. ive seen other sites akin to this with them. i feel it would be a cool little feature to add. sometimes someone doesnt get to hear happy birthday. and seeing as theres a pretty sizable caring community here i think that it might raise the moral so to speak. idk. just a thought.

While the risk of someone finding out who you are on this site is low, I feel that posting your b-day is an unnecessary risk if you're not truly comfortable with the idea.

-1 too personal, and this is not really a social media site, but an art archive. It's too much out of place.
Usually, users simply post their birthday announcements in the blips which I will do too tomorrow :p.

why i feel this creepy somehow?

i didnt intend for it to be creepy. i just thought that it would be cool if you just woke up one day, hopped online and saw that people were wishing you a happy birthday. without having to tell everyone its your birthday.

welp... its looking like this idea isnt going to fly. oh well. it was worth a shot

An actual birthday is too creepy, but what about a site birthday? When you joined, not when you were born.

Most feature requests are about things that would be useful for the site, hence why the template (you didn't use one this time so I pasted it down below) includes the question "Why would it be useful?"

This is pretty out of scope for the purpose of the site. Even site join date birthdays are rather out of scope for an art archive/collection site.
