2 years?

[Adam loves Hilary Duff]

On my userlookup, my shield just changed to 30 months.
And now on the neoboards it says "2 years"
1 year=12 months
12+12=24 months + 6 = 30 months.
TNT has got to work on their math.
(Actually, I assume this is a glitch)

Perhaps, they are rounding down to whole years.

Wasn't there a topic about this recently? I vaguely remember someone stating that they had been a member for several months and yet it showed 0 years on the neoboards.

EDIT: It must be a glitch of some sort. I just tested my account and it says the number of months, not years. Almost everyone else had number of months shown as well. Yet, I did see someone on the boards with zero years.

It's been doing that to my 9 month account. It switches from saying 9 months to 0 years and then back again.

guess that explains all the 0 years people i see on the boards

If it was the rounding thing........
Still 30 months is closer to 3 years than 2.

math wise it is,other wise its right in the middle

No it's not, it's smack dab in the middle.

Rounding down is probably generally preferred to rounding up. Rounding up could cause some stupid problems.
