Sorry mate, I have looked to change it but I don't seem to have the power, there are three people farther up the pecking order who I think can do this for you, sure it will be sorted soon. 8-)

Rick This is a familiar story and am sorry to say that neither you nor the board directors (Owners) can change your date of birth (or your Username) they are fixed - perhaps senior Proboard staff could do it but doubt they would without good reason as it is that way for a reason - so the only way we can do it, is to delete your existing account and you then register again and enter your correct D.o.B, I think you will probably find (although not certain) that you cannot use the identical Username again (message says 'this name is already in use' or similar words) and guess it is because your original registration is kept on file by the computer, at least for a while.
From memory I believe that the problem stems from it being a American site which uses their way of entering dates with 'the month first then the day second'
Send me, or Sav or Nige a PM or an email and we will delete your account (you can do it yourself from your Profile if you wish) then approve your new account immediately (if we know it's you ).
