I looked into my profile at Baanboard today, and found out that I'm more than 4 years younger than documented at my birth certificate.
My first idea was to edit my profile, and when I opened it I was disappointed because the correct birthday was there.

No big deal, but something is wrong. The profile everybody can see has another birthday than the one I have given.

maybe you should grow your beard...

Huh? I am also too old for the board!!! It seems that the date is stored in a unix date counter... all < 1/1/1970 is too old to measure.

Hey Sturla,

You are right :) The problem was picked up by one of our members last week and this is either a bug or a little slip in the last upgrade. The information is indeed correctly stored in the database but wrongly displayed on the screen.

Give us some time to dig into it. In the mean time, enjoy your younger/older years :)

Fast update: looks like this was a combined OS/PHP problem. Think it's fixed now :)

Patrick,

Darn! Can you temporarily roll back the update?

Not only was I enjoying being 4 years younger than yesterday, I was hoping the glitch would mean I still had time to switch funds in my 401K before the 2001 crash.

Scott,

For a worthwhile bribe, I'd be willing to rollback the situation in your case :D
