I like the idea of a pinned Birthday Thread....just like there might be a pinned Welcome Newbie Thread. But just my 2 cents

Happy New year

Happy Birthday

Merry Christmas

Happy Hanukkah

Happy Easter

Happy Halloween

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy mothers Day

Happy Fathers Day

Happy Valentines Day

Out of the 365 days in a year, taking a couple days out to wish someone happiness is a very nice thing to do.

Special Thanks to Maddog.

Re: PM'ing birthday wishes, when you're having a birthday party do you want the guests to show up one at a time and leave before the next guest arrives or do you want them there all at the same time?

I don't find the birthday wishes intrusive at all. Seems pretty well-managed and usually under a single thread, thanks to Maddog.

I wanted to sing Happy Birthday but I didn't want to spend the $5,000.

In 1935, Happy Birthday to You was copyrighted as a work for hire by Preston Ware Orem for the Summy Company, the publisher of Good Morning to All . A new company, Birch Tree Group Limited, was formed to protect and enforce the song's copyright. In 1998,[10] the rights to Happy Birthday to You and its assets were sold to The Time-Warner Corporation. In March 2004, Warner Music Group was sold to a group of investors le... [ More ]

No disrespect, but I think you blew your birthday candle out long ago.

Birthdays should be celebrated no matter who, or how old you are...

One thing about birthdays postings here is that all those receiving birthday wishes are supposedly lottery players.

JAP69 — Sat, 17 Sep 2011 22:31:05 GMT

We sure are going to miss the posting the day no one has a birthday for posting that day. I look every day to see if it is missing.

I may even get depressed about it. At least for a couple minutes.

When I first came to this board I thought it was very curious that there were so many more threads in Mystical than mathematics, considering this is a lottery board. But the number of dream requests is quite a large percentage of that forum.

I can't remember the last time I even clicked the Mystical Forum button, but today I took a look. Several of the topics were Dream, dreams, or dream this or dream that which could be found by accessing any online dream book or they could have used the Wo... [ More ]

Studies show that people who have a lot of birthdays live longer.

Strange but true.

It's just one of those little mysteries of life that nobody can explain.

Just to be on record, I didn't say that you should not wish Birthdays. I said you could PM or find some other way, opening daily new thread is not the only way to wish someone Bday. Someone suggested to have one thread where people can wish birthday. I'm not sure why any well intentioned suggestion takes wrong turn.

Open one thread for each person if that's going to feel you better.

I've seen threads in the Pick-3 Forum pushed back to page 2 on the same day they were started. It's not like you have to open every thread and read all the replies before finding the one we're looking for either.

I've never seen anything pushed back on any board like any attempt at an actual discussion in Mystical being pushed back, no, buried, by the day's millenia of dream number requests. If people starting such threads bothered to do a... [ More ]

Birthday threads don't clutter the Discussion Forum; at the worst they only push one thread with no replies in 4 or 5 days back to page 2.

Before you added another B'day thread to further clutter up this forum, did you not stop and think how you are contradicting yourself or were you so busy trying to make a point that you forgot about looking silly? There are members here that do not mind the variety of subjects presented on this site. Maybe you need to find another forum. Just a thought...

i would suggest a off topic forum thro

just as we grow, we have more and more stuff none related to lottery. and i rather have them in 1 off topic forum my self.

Is there an opt out option for those who dont want to be on the birthday list? lol.

Even if no one wants to hear it, Birthday threads are cluttering the forum is a true statement. Is a new thread needed every day of the week? How bout one thread that stays at the top all the time because you all are so excited about well wishes for everyone? C'mon, be brave. Set a new thread record with all that enthusiasm. Or, maybe you all could just start a Happy Birthday forum. lol. Happy Birthday

Well, it's one line on the forums page..I don't think it's bothering anyone but you. And if it is, they've learned to live with it. Think about

it..on your special day isn't it nice to know people are thinking about you and take the time to let you know?

Happy Birthday in advance.

Birthday threads are cluttering the forum

jaggudada — Thu, 15 Sep 2011 00:14:41 GMT

No affense to anyone but I feel these B'day threads are adding lines and cluttering the forum up and pushing lottery related discussions to 2nd or 3rd page. It would be nice to keep lottery related discussions on forum instead of other jargon which makes it difficult to swift through. If you want to wish could you not send them PM? Please think over it. Just a thought.
