You guys must be sick and tired of so many suggestions! I apologise, but ideas should always be suggested, as it doesn´t cost anything to simply speak your mind. So here´s another one.
What do you think of a link somewhere in the site, where there is a list with the names of the members who are celebrating their birthdays during the present month. So, since this month is March, we could have a list with the names of members who celebrate this month, like myself!
No need to put the day, just a simple monthly list with the names!
Also, no need for prizes or anything similar, just the name showing would be enough. Wouldn´t it be a great and fun thing?

Maybe you are right, it has nothing to do with poker. I just thought of it since companies always make a big deal about your birthday and so on. Take mine for example, it is ridiculous the amount of mail being sent to my home when it gets close to my birthday. Mail with special birthday offers from stores which I have been in the past, restaurant invitations where i have made reservations in the past and all that birthday bla bla bla. E-mails too of course.
Well, I don´t know, it just came to mind when I was reading yet another birthday e-mail. It might be a bad idea. I tried!

Right now, we would have a list of more than 2000 names each month then.... doesn't really give any exclusive feeling when having a birthday with 1999 others And the number will of course keep rising as members grow.

how about once you reach VIP status cuz really thats really the only people we no about have it for people who have over say 200 posts or so? i think that would be a good way to narrow it down?? no

Cool, so theres about 24,000 BankrollMob members..Thats cool.
Other sites send emails to people when its your birthday so I think it would have to be something like that. Coud add people to a friends list and you'll see when its your friends birthdays but than it'll like facebook so something.

I never thought of it as an "exclusive feeling", to be honest it really is just a simple case of recognition and respect. But yes, I see how having huge lists can create a "whole lotta work" instead of a "whole lotta love".

Posted by Administrator: But a VIP program is not just "copy and paste", so it won't be added in the near future
Hey, as long as it has been talked about, it means it is out in the open, which is the very first step. The others might take longer, but the first has indeed been taken.

Posted by cyber: i just cant see any reason for a list of that kind..
You can´t see a reason for such list but you wouldn´t mind if your name was on it? How does that work? Maybe the reason such list should exist is the same reason why you wouldn´t mind it, it does no harm and it can only bring a positive feeling.
