To everyone who says it's never a problem: Have you ever been in an opinion thread where the OP states his opinion, then get's 6/10'd, followed by the quoting of his month-old join-date? I know I have, just in the past few days.
Perhaps I should restate my question, as it was in the lower part of my OP: Should users be able to hide their join-date?
How often have you been put down because of your join date?
Any time you have, it says more about those who bring it up than it does of you UNLESS you are posting completely irrelevantly and off topic.
Even when I was new here I never had anyone berate me because of my join date, ever.
The only possible time I have seen any join date related elitism is from a few entitled Mythics, because they feel more important because they joined 'back in the day'. I have been Mythic 7 times, but I'm an '08 'kid' and my title keeps vacillating not by any doing of my own. I can just about guarantee you, I am well older in actual age than the majority of them. And quite honestly, I don't give a damn what they think for their pride gets in the way of their actually posting anything that could possibly be of any use or interest to the masses.
Moral being: Ignore anybody who gives you crap over a join date or title. Neither really mean anything other than your own investment.
