DemonGoddess Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 I'm letting everyone know that I am adding this particular mod. This is for the SITE'S protection, as we are an 18 and over site and community. So, if it turns out that you have not added your correct birthday information, and you're finding you can't edit it, pm me with it, and it'll get done. Once this mod is installed, the forum overall will be RESTRICTED by age (meaning 18 and over). I will be leaving a few of the forums not set that way, for a little bit at least while you all update your information.
WotanAnubis Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 So, if it turns out that you have not added your correct birthday information, and you're finding you can't edit it, pm me with it, and it'll get done. Just to be sure, you're talking about the birthday information in the "Profile Information" bit of my profile, right?

It is already added in my profile, is that all that is needed? Sorry for being stupid, here.
grolyn Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 Um, where exactly do I add my birthdate? It is already added in my profile, is that all that is needed? Sorry for being stupid, here. I'm guessing the message was sent to all members but only those that do not have the birthdate set needs to have it set.
lyiint Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 I've added my birthdate to my profile. I hope this meets the conditions
Emi Posted February 5, 2008 Report Posted February 5, 2008 Mhmm... this enforcement will likely filter out many underaged ones about. Which is a pretty good thing to us.
KCraine Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 Good. I don't really want AFF to close. That would be sad.
shinigamiinochi Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 yeah, those damn seventeen year olds in need of some free porn. *cough* me three years ago *cough*
DemonGoddess Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Posted February 6, 2008 yes, you're all right. You don't have to edit the information if it's already there, obviously. If it's not, then you do. The purpose of the email was to give users a chance to FIX that if it's not already done, rather than come to the boards and find they can only access and use the Support forum.....(once I have the mod done, that is). Because that is what's going to happen. You go to your user CP (My Controls) and edit the information there, if you didn't add it when you registered. The option you'll select in the left side menu is "edit profile information". Poll that was mentioned. As the birthday thing was more important....sorta forgot to add that link.
lexxfan4life Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 My birthdate is set correctly. I'm glad I checked that out
whipblade Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 I understand the need for the site to have the correct birthdates, I would really like an option to HIDE my birthdate from the public views like we do for the e-mail address.
DemonGoddess Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Posted February 6, 2008 I'm actually looking for a way to do that, giving the user the option of not displaying that in public.
Allys Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 I didn't have the year up *sweatdrop*. I fixed it XD.
Terri Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 Yay team me - didn't have to change a thing But I do like this idea - anything that shifts the responsibility to those accessing the site who aren't supposed to be than those of us who are of age that just come here to relax and talk fics
Blue-eyed Fox Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 Mine has already been set since I joined. The only trouble with minors is they don't know their boundaries and most are irresponsible when it comes to agreeing with certain conditions. In other words, hormonal teenagers... But we have to admit that we've been there...
Shadowstar Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 (edited) Birthday. Bah. I dislike giving my birthday out to random strangers. How do I hide it from other people? ... Wait, is this only talking about the forums? I don't really care about the forums, only my regular account. Do I need a birthday on there? Edited February 6, 2008 by Shadowstar
ShenLong Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 have updated my profile to include my birthdate for you.
DemonGoddess Posted February 6, 2008 Author Report Posted February 6, 2008 Actually yes, birthday information needs to be entered in BOTH programs. As I said, I'm looking into a way to hiding the birthdays from general view in the forum, and I'll ask about masking it from general view in the archive as well.
Guest Rosemarius Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 yeah, those damn seventeen year olds in need of some free porn. *cough* me three years ago *cough* lol *whistles innocently*
KuwaLover Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 My birthday was already put in, but thank you so very much for sending me the message ^^.
SFC_Omicronus Posted February 6, 2008 Report Posted February 6, 2008 It said my birthday was already set in my profile, but I input it again just to make sure (I'm either forum-tarded or forgetful with profile information...I can't remember which). In any event, my DOB has been reset. As for revealing that info to the public, well...I can understand why people want to hide it. I'm probably for that as well.
