Why would someone say it's their birthday when they have already said it was their birthday previously on another day? I know why just thought I ask 😊

No, it's not an Egg Cave birthday and there is about 7 months or so in between. Just enough time to forget if your not paying attention.

No, its not the player who is doing the Birthday giveaway currently on here either.

@miomar

Do you think that is right?

This is mainly to get people aware vs answering a question I already know 😊

@luvmykids244 Its not right. People shouldn't be rewarded for blatant attempts to get attention/free stuff. That's why I avoid birthday and "quitting" threads like the plague.

@orderedchaos

Yep. No one will not know my actual birthday or even a made up one on here lol Or even when I will quit and I certainly would not go on and on about it forever.

Kind of sad that even those are aware are still wanting to give them gifts. It's odd.

I am not looking for an answer tho😊 It was a rhetorical question. It's quite clear your not getting the warning from this. I cannot be clear on that due to Forum Rules.

@luvmykids244

only a few of my friends know of my b-day on EC, but i do it just for the wishes and such. plus, there's usually an egg or so released that i get on that day or sometime the following week.

as long as people use it like that instead of posting for the attention (one of the things forums should ban. just PM your close friends and ONLY them )*ahem*

@blitzvalor

I have no problems if it's your actual birthday 😊 I have very close friends that I have known for years via the internet and we all celebrate each others birthday. We don't have 2 birthdays lol

@miomar

Your just going to have to put it together for yourself. Cannot be any clearer than what I am here on the forums.

@luvmykids244

well, i celebrate my EC birthday as well. but just to remember the event, never to scam eggs off of other users.

they'll come around some other time and there are adoption coves out there. just chill w/ the tine obsession (nobody in particular, but we know someone)

@blitzvalor

Oh yes and Egg Cave birthdays too are fine. As long as the date coincides with the date on their profiles. This is not the reason for my rhetorical question. This is their bday along with another bday not to long ago. So unless there is something else I don't know it hard to be born on 2 different days with lots of months in between lol

Sorry, I am not posting who it is on the forums or through PM's. Just wanted people to be aware for now 😊

I did notify some who were gifting as I thought it was the right thing to do.

@luvmykids244

I don't have anything against people posting it's their birthday (on the actual date, once a year) and I done the same, for the sake of wishes. But multiple times a year is silly and immature.

I think I know who you are talking about. I dunno, I guess the fact that this website is mostly populated by 10-13 year old kids explains this behavior.

I just knew that some people would cheat their own birthdays for the chance at more gifts. It wouldn't make much sense to me to do that.

My 12th birthday was in December. It wouldn't make sense for me to go around saying I'm 13 in March or in April.

Especially since you can't believe everything people say on the Internet. But yeah, we all know WHY a person would do it. 😊 I don't know how peopel can be stupid enough to do that though. X3

No matter the age it's still not right. I know your not saying that but it needed to be said 😊


@dreamer

Yep, unfortunately it happens.

Why it pays to be aware 😊

@luvmykids244

I agree.
Thing is, people can get a bit insensitive towards others sometimes. It bothers me that some care far more over the pixels than for human being behind the screen. It makes me question humanity sometimes. Especially in some of the recent events. Egg Cave won't be here forever, all these pixels will be lost. What will be left is the impact you made on the others and the other way around.

@blitzvalor

Not about being an Adult tho 😊 About being a good person which age does not matter in that. Thank you 😊 Some would disagree but they are not ones I would associate with anyways. I'm not friends with people who scam, lie, cheat and need people to agree with every thing they say types. Find them boring.

@petpet55

Yes, I agree. At least there are a lot of great things tho so just focus on that 😊 It really helps to get through life.

I stated my birthday on the 26th of Dec to get "Happy Birthdays"
I dont care about gifts, I like it when people just say Happy Birthday. All the peeps that said that made my day.

>_> They only want gifts.
They are selfish and they are getting what they want.

Thankyou for posting the
"No, its not the player who is doing the Birthday giveaway currently on here either." thing(:
I appreciate that.
I promise everyone I am turning 16 today xD
I had my sixth hour sing to me o.o

I believe I THINK I might know who it is.
Or maybe its another user who's also doing the same thing. Either way, she publicly announced it twice, with like a half-year or so distance between each fake one.
