Months ago, there was a brief discussion in the F2P picture thread about determining a F2P's "date of birth"... and it's been vaguely nagging at me ever since.
@Chops had suggested simply using the date of the Level 20 achievement, because the vast-majority of characters hit Lvl-20 on the same day that they're created... but @Crystalpall pointed out that the Level 30 achievement displays the Lvl-10 "prerequisite", which can be moused-over to get an even more accurate date!
With that still filed-away in the back of my mind, I recently got-around to examining my own achievements more-carefully. It turns-out that you can actually click on any of the "completed" ones to see their prerequisites... and after systematically clicking-and-mousing through my F2P's entire archive, I found her "oldest" one:
Granted, I'm quite certain that I'd played for a few days before getting 50 Quests Completed... but as far as "verifiable evidence" is concerned, it makes today my 8th birthday!
So help yourself to a slice of Delicious Chocolate Cake, and let's see yours!
