Have you filled in your birthday in your forums?

And have you set the perms to other people being able to see it?

If not, how are we supposed to know it's your birthday?

It was just my ploy to get a title, that's all. I see you don't have a title either... didn't you used to though?

If you think I'll concede you're wrong, I'll take any title... even if it's "FG's Highest Paid Male Whore."

You should have been hanging around here long enough now for knowing that the best way for never ever getting a title is to ask for it
