Most definetly.............excellent idea!!
The forums are so cluttered with congradulating threads that it is hard to find anything of interest.
Maybe a congradulatory forum could be added so that all the high score and birthday congradulations threads can be posted there...............

I am glad I am not asking this, I thought I was the only one getting the ****s with it...The problem with the Birthday wishes is they are posted days before the event rather than the day they occur and get pulled up for weeks on end nearly to the point some of them are closer to there next birthday.
How’s this for an idea rather than a separate section why don’t I just close them after 24 hours... After all it is primarily a bowling site... and yes we do have allot of other stuff but birthdays and congratulation threads are becoming a joke of late...
Let me know which way we want to go with this and do you want this moved to the main section Sean for more exposure and a say as it affects the whole site not just QLD.

Isn't the MISCELLANEOUS FORUM section for non bowling related topics.

That quote was posted in the Qld section earlier. It makes a very good point.
My thoughts exactly. If you want to wish someone a happy birthday I would at least take the time and effort to get on the phone and do it in a more person to person way.
Anyway like these birthday posts, I really don't think this post needs to go on for any longer. I hope there is some sort of restriction put in place for birthday posts, after all this is TOTALBOWLING.COM not TOTALBIRTHDAYS.COM and if there is, well then there's only one thing left to say and that's......HIP HIP HOORAY!!!

Oh some of you are big party poopers!!!!!!!! Ok, it can be a bit much sometimes when it drags on and on but it is really nice when it is your own birthday. You wouldn't complain if it was your Happy birthday posted!!!!
This may be a bowling site but making friendships across the country is a part of bowling........and this is a bowling community on this forum.

I agree and disagree with you ice, yes still have a birthday section, but close the thread say 3 days tops after your birthday, who ever doesnt get to post in your birthday thread can send you a priv msg or an email.
Some of these birthdays are getting posted 2-3 days before it is even the person's Birthday, and by people that are close to them, who in my mind would remember what day your Birthday is. Then a week after there Birthday has been and gone people are still posting which is fine, but let them have there own section so if you dont want to read it you dont have too.

A birthday forum sounds like a good idea as Lana said it is nice when it's your birthday to get on and see some lovely wishes from friends etc. At least with a birthday section you don't have to read it if you don't want to.
Maybe the reason some threads run on is that not all people have the luxury of checking the site on a daily basis or may post early as they know they wont be able to access the site on the particular day. Our computer at home is having a hissy fit at the moment and we can only log on at other locations.
So as posted before a birthday forum would be good for those who are not interested and also good for those who are. After all your birthday only comes around once a year, people are suppossed to make a BIG deal of you, even if it does last a week........

id rather have bday messages in person not on the internet... seems very impersonal that way
