Urwen has just left Hobbiton.
I couldn't help but notice that not everyone is congratulated on their birthdays. For example, no one mentioned today's birthday people despite them existing.

If you think this is an issue, why not fix it yourself?

The Downs has many members who are not active, or no longer active. Many of them disappeared many years ago. I congratulate people I know, even those who are no longer active, but not the multitudes of long-gone members I have never interacted with. If you have a different opinion on the question, you're welcome to congratulate more people on this thread.

Indeed. I also see no need to take note of birthdays for those who have been absent for a long time, and that I never had anything to do with. One must draw the line someplace.

Indeed. Your continued and unflagging duty to lightening the forum will always be appreciated, Gal. And I'm not sure porn_hub63 would even notice you missed his/her birthday.

If I miss birthdays for a couple weeks, I might be on an internet-less vacation or something. If I miss a month, check the obituaries. If I am posting on other threads but consistently missing birthdays, It is no longer me - I have been possessed by an entity trying to pose as G55.
