[REJECTED] Birthday Balloons effect for birthday celebrants similar to twitter

[GuestGuest]

I already suggested this in the support forums a while ago, and decided to also have it suggested here.

I know that this feature in twitter is not new, but what if we had this, not just here in the support forum but also in other forums as well? See the news >>> http://www.theverge.com/2015/7/6/8903445/twitter-birthday-ads-relevant-content-marketing

For those who are not familiar with how this works, see the video >>> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y-2FZ87sCjk

So, what are your thoughts?

I have read a suggestion here about custom birthday rank given to members celebrating their birthday. This would have been abused if implemented since they can just change their birthdays to have the ranks forever in their possession. But let's give it a shot.

Whenever this will be accepted, can I grab the code? Haha!
So what do you think?

Did you read the whole article?  It also says that it is a way to tailor ads.

I have read that, but the point of my suggestion is just to simply have a balloon feature on the UI of a birthday celebrant (minus the ads thingy).

Oh yeah, I saw that on twitter when someone I followed was having a birthday. If I were to do something like this, I'd probably make my own from scratch. I don't have time to work on something like that at the moment, but I'll note it down so I remember for when I do get time.

Since the requester has left the forum this topic is rejected.
