1 year 52 weeks? o.O

Just for the heck of it, I went and viewed John's forum profile and noticed something.

That looks like something that could be easily corrected. Something like...

while ($weeks >= 52) {
	$weeks -= 52;
	$years++;
}

Uh yeah!

Its a thing with Drupal, if you have been registered here for a year (2, 3 and so on), Drupal will still display it as 52 weeks for a bit. So it will correct its self.

I think it's a rounding

I think it's a rounding problem, i.e. it will round up to 52 weeks, but not to a year. Just an idea.

Hmmm

Pardon If it's going to round the week count, it should round down to the nearest whole integer. If someone has actually been registered for X years, Y weeks, and Z days, it would be more accurate to say that the person has been registered for X years and Y weeks, rather than Y+1 weeks, even if the days value was 6.

Meh, sometimes I think I have OCD; if I see something that I don't think is right, I almost always try to correct it or, if I can't, suggest that it be corrected.
