I know it is computer generated announcing who has a birthday but this is a waste of time people posting Happy Birthday Greetings as greenhill (and indeed others in the past) have long gone and will never read it!!
If it is not a username I recognise I click on the members button and see who they are and if they are still around.

I am sincere with my birthday wishes (I must check to see if people are still active though as I do tend to remember names even if they are from posts ages ago) but even though some people don't post much I hope that by wishing them Happy Birthday that they know that I hope that they have a nice day. I can't help myself :oops:

Sorry I didn't mean to critise you or anyone else who posts birthday wishes and if someone is still active even with a few posts then of course wish them happy birthday.
It is just some like greenhill have not been active for months so don't feel it is worth posting a birthday wish for them as they are highly unlikely to see it. I prefer to be selective and post only for the "well known".

I'm not highly sensitive so I'm more than happy to be made aware of my useless posts :giggle:
I will try and restrain myself but can't promise :roll:

If you are happy to post, Diane65, keep posting! :star:
We are all different and, 'though I only post HP for people I know post and will read the message, I wouldn't want to impose that on anyone as a rule! Be Happy! :D
