    [Forum]Can't change DOB or any setting / edit my sig

    1. I needed to edit my sig to reflect that I'm in 22.04, not 20.04, but I couldn't seem to find it in my profile or settings.
    2. I went to make other changes, but the system won't let me save anything. It complains about an invalid birth date. So I went to check if that's right. Turns out, my b-date is listed as 1--1-1000. I'm pretty sure I'm not the oldest human being ever to live, so I went to change it, but I have no way of editing that strange birthdate.

    This thing won't even let me just shut my sig off. It always complains about the invalid birthdate, refusing to save for that reason. I appreciate any help.

    Try again, probably a leftover from the forum software move or an upgrade.

      GO to USER SETTINGS -> Accoun t tab and scroll down to Conversation Detail Options for your signature.

      For the birth date in the Profile tab, there is a RESET button. I've never tried it. It may be a nuclear option

        That's what I did from the admin panel - there was no date present at all.

          Only an Admin can change DOB.

            Maybe an Admin could PM me then so that I can tell them my DOB so that they can change it. It's not that I care about any of you guys knowing how old I am. These days you just have to be careful not to let that info call into the hands of scammers.

              I just thought you were like 11.

              I mean, your posts and all...



              You did join 2013 tho, so you're probably like 19?

              Kidding, of course! LOL

                  Can someone create a bug where I am permanently 25?

                    Not sure I want to go back that far, but I'd take 40's in a minute!
