It's okay to say happy birthday to a regular user. It's not okay to say happy birthday to nobody in particular. You can't just shout into the abyss.

So when are we irregular users going to get some love and/or respect? Everybody needs a hug, even if you have a rather strange growth on your back...

Sure, it's what MeMail was probably invented for.

We've got, what, 65,000 registered users on here?
So, around 180 people should be celebrating their birthday today...
wishing a happy birthday to random users seem like a rather dangerous precedent.
