I noticed that I could see my Birthdate on my Profile page. Considering the importance of this information can you at least include an option to hide this from other users. Most other sites acknowledge the need to keep certain information private, including a person's birthdate. I tried to edit my profile and there was not an option to hide the information from other users. Showing age is one thing, but I think hiding the actual birthday would be a good option for users.
Can you add this option?

Yeah, that's a good idea. If you can hide your Email address, why not you birth date?

I understand that some people are sensitive about their age, I'll look into making it so that users can make it private, not sure when since I've got a ton of stuff to work on but if I don't do it by Thursday, remind me again.

Davideo7 :
There's not really a huge rush with this. Anyone who was seriously interested in the information could have gotten it by now.
Just to be clear, age privacy may be good, but that's not what I was initially after. The profile also shows the exact date of birth. Shame about age is one thing, but date of birth is one of the big privacy concerns in most situations. So it was actually the month and day I was targeting rather than the year.
Ex. I don't care if people know I'm 20 years old. I'd rather them not know the month and day I was born. It's just big information that doesn't need to be public. The staff can still know if you want it that way though.

I agree w/ Bnuge, I really don't care about my age but I never liked to see my exact birth date displayed at my profile.


--------------
PS2: Fine.
Mega Driver with 71 games: Nice.
Super Nintendo bought at the fair for US$ 25,00: Double Nice.
Turbo Game VG9000T bought at the same fair for US$ 5,00: Just Great.
Black Mega Driver 3 found in a trash can with 4 cartridges: works like a charm.
Long in the tooth Atari: running smoothly
Xbox360 Falcon bought for US$ 700,00, used for 6 months: May devil be with it and guard it

Davideo7 :
Just reminding you again about this. I wasn't going to do it last week because of the whole server issue. Then you were reorganizing the Board, so I figured I'd let that settle. Everything seems settled so I'm bringing it up again.

BNuge : I honestly don't have time to work on this feature any time soon, I've got so many more higher priority things I gotta work on first. For now I can just change your bday on your profile if you want.

No problem again. If you get a minute can you switch it to January 2? That's just a good general one.
