Can we please quit displaying birthdays on the main page? All six birthdays listed today are for spammers.

Spammers also have birthdays.

They are all under 30 years of age.

...It would also be cool if the damn bots wouldn't be displayed:

....Looks like it might be one spammer with 6 birthdays!
I never noticed that Birthday Line before - seems a pretty strange thing to do anyway

Hmm... Could we eliminate SPAM if we executed all people 30 and under?

I need the birthday line, as I can't remember them myself and I send a pm to some persons when they've got birthday. I don't understand your problems with it. It is at the bottom of the page. Why are you interested down there?

Reread the OP. On the day I posted, all six bdays listed were for spammers.

Usually on forums, there is an option in the preferences where each user can choose disable it. Do we really need the bday announcements being taken over by the spammers, too?
