Nope, It can be exploited and 'Supporter' means that you're supporting osu! I don't think someone that gets it for free is a 'Supporter' Maybe if it's someone's birthday they can have a certain colour in chat.
Lol having a certain colour different from normal users/GMTs/Supporters just because of birthday is very impossible.PeroO wrote:

Actually, I should've said that. Well, there's no way I can change the title anymore now, can I?RdManebog wrote:
It can be Birthday Tag.Sirade wrote:
I don't think the name should be "Birthday Supporter" since they didn't support, so it really doesn't make sense.
I just don't know a perfect name for this, can someone perhaps help suggest a good name?
Or... Is it good as it is?
Why would it be impossible? I don't get how irc works. Explain please >_> (Actually, maybe you can just link me to some wiki page or straight out tell me to google, I don't think we can talk about stuff like that here, unless it's not off topic?)[GraveChaos] wrote:

Would be nice, as long as it has something listed below.
- No userpage feature.
- No increased beatmap submission.
- No vote request.
- No skin-able main menu background.
- No change names.
- No access to early releases.
The reason of these no's?
Well, because birthday always last 24 hour, it is a bad idea to reward with these above which last for a long time.
- Colored name, which isn't bright yellow or any existing color, to differentiate from current supporters.
- Access to osu!direct.
- Ability to view specifics ranking.
- Automatic downloads when playing multiplayer, spectating others, or clicking links in chat. (likely not to be added)
Important things that needs to be aware of- Restrict the birthday editing (of course, it'll have to be decided by someone's who better than me), or else it'll be heavily abused.
Oh well, you're right, but still, I'm not sure is it ok for a one-day background? I guess majority of players would not put a background because one-day background isn't worth it.Remyria wrote:
Why not skinnable background? it would just be seen by them for that 24 hours. if your supporter tag runs out, you can't see anymore that custom BG menus.

This can be very badly abused, being that a person's birthday can be changed infinitely. Couldn't a user just continue to increment their birth date to maintain the free supporter status? I mean, I'm sure that there is a way to circumvent that from happening internally -- with that being said, I don't think this is the best of ideas.
Just like everyone else, I heavily disagree with "no skinable main menu background".Sirade wrote:

What's the harm of a simple main menu background?

How about when you open osu! on your birthday, you get a mashup of "circles!" and "happy birthday" as the main menu theme

How about Birthday Tag ?
- Different colour name tag, not bright yellow.
- Access osu!direct for 24h
- Ability to view specific ranking
- Birthday tag on his/her profile for 24h
Lock the birthday date once the birthday has passed to prevent abuse.Gabe wrote:
Seems impossible to me since we manually set our birth date on our profile. It would have been possible if at the registery site we had to set it, so it would never change.
However, I can see people overusing this function and create multiple accounts for the pleasure of having a free 24h Supporter "tag".

Maybe the birthday has to be at least 3 months away from when you made the account? Someone before said a year before, that seems like a decent amount of time. Waiting at least 3 months for 1 day supporter would deter a lot of people from multiaccounting I'm pretty sure.
It would be very sad to see this.Remyria wrote:
What if the birthday of the person is really like 2 days after he/she made his/her account?

At least 2 weeks should be enough to prevent multi accounts for this feature.
they can always get some osu!coinsBaraatje123 wrote:
Well
What about current supporter?
It feels a shame that non-supporters get a gift, while supporters don't

Not sure what you mean but giving the access of viewing specific leaderboard should be ok and viewing other rankings, maybe it could be ok, or not if I'm wrong.Faustas156 wrote:
