We don't check it without having a good reason, which pretty much means we barely ever do it at all.
End this paranoia bullshit already, will you?
Name, location and birth date are hardly sufficient for anyone to steal your identity. They'd also need your social ID number (which is called different things in different countries). Not to mention a purpose to use your identity for.
Also. Your birth date is only required when the forum displays user birthdays for current day, but you have to re-enter it in the forum profile for that to work. And there you can choose if you want it displayed to begin with, and if so then how (as in: age only, date only or full age & date).

Ever here of a phone book with name, birthdate, and ext location yu can simple go to a phone book and find thier address. With just that much info you can get a credit card in someone's elses name. that is teh info needed to find someones sociaalsecurity number. And, the main point it isn't nescary for them to collect this information.
Isp will give them location, Age and name is unimportant.
