    I'm not 3 years yet...

    I joined December 6th.

    Today is December 4th.



    Is this just a problem with rounding or something?

      I would expect the admins to care that their counter is off by 2 days.

          I am willing to bet that you are the only person who noticed and who cares about that.

            365*3 = 1095 - 2 = (days you've been a member) 1093 / 365 = 2.9945
            1094 / 365 = 2.9972 ... I think FFR has join time down to the minute so it's probably just a rounding error.

                Mine hadn't gone up to three years in November despite the fact that I joined on the 20th or something like that.

                1,047,658 members and growing! 1061 users currently using FFR. You have been a member for 2.92 years.

                Yeah. Still under 3. I've been a member since just after Thanksgiving in 2003. The main page doesn't use the forum year for its calculation either.

                Just say it's broken, k.

                  I've been a member for 3.14 years.
                  I feel like celebrating a little.

                      Squeek: your forum join date is Jan 04... so clearly your age goes off of forum join date. so you'll hit 3 years sometime in Jan 07.

                        If your (Afro) join date is Dec 6th, then it won't have been 3 years until Dec 6th of this year, which is two days after Dec 04, so it's correct.

                        Edit: Well, I guess it's off for Squeek.

                        Edit2: Well, maybe it's going by forum join date, which says Jan 2004 for Squeek.

                        Edit3: Woops, I was interpreting Afro's post differently than what it really meant, I thought he meant he thought he was a member for 3 years, and it thought he wasn't. Know that I know how it really is, it is just rounding.

                          If that's true, then the image above is even more wrong. My forum join date is December 7th. That's a three day discrepency.

                            Or I can just say that I didn't discover the forums until I wanted to post for the first time two months later and just say I'm in my third year.

                            Sup guys I'm in my third year.

                            PS tass - it was different before. Why would it be based off of Forum date when it's clearly not associated with the forum?
