Bug 1970?

[fjx]

I noticed some time ago that some members' profiles are dated for 1970, as far as I know, PA exists since 2003, then why is it like that? Is it a forum bug?

Apparently, after a forum upgrade many years ago, some members' join dates got messed up, and have been like that ever since.
Nothing we can do to fix it, as far as I'm aware, but it's quite funny anyhow.

A bug indeed, but a very old bug.

Can we edit them in our profiles?

 

[Pieter Boelen]

Not the join dates.

Join dates could be changed via a database alteration. If you know the date you joined I an change it

I believe my original join date was June 26'th, 2003, but I kinda like mine now, I was 2 and 1/2 years old when I joined PA! That would explain a lot of my early posts
