Conflicting Years When Joined Forums/Member Date

I got my 13th year badge today, but my profile says 14 years. Just an FYI, the site has conflicting years for joined forums/member date.

    Hey all - actually it's just a weird way the relative time stamps were implemented.

    If you hover of a timestamp, like on your profile, you'll notice that it will show you the exact date. And you will see that as soon something is from a year and a day ago, it will start showing as "2 years ago".
    Same happens and is confusing for months.

    As it's not really that impacting and you have the hover state to workaround it, it's unfortunately not at the top of the list to get fixed.

    I just looked at my profile and badges.  I only have 10 aniversary badges and it should be 11 since I know for a fact I joined EA forum in 2014.  But my profile does say  Joined 11 years ago.     They are working on the site itself, things are moving around and changing.  So,  for the next several months I would honestly, I personally will, expect many hic-ups 🤣
