I am guessing it's the date the forum sets automatically when you register... which means they registered but never actually logged in. So they may have been spammers or just never got their confirmation e-mail.

wouldn't that be what the N/A is for?

If my memory persists then I would say the reason they have a last login date of 12/31/1969 would be because these forums have gone through several different software vendors. I would say that the last time they logged in was put into a field on one type of forums software (or maybe it was not recorded) and then after one of the many forum upgrades it was not ported to the field that gets used in the latest (vBulletin?). Finally they have not logged in for a lengthy period of time, possibly not since the first mentioned upgrade, maybe not since vBulletin I do not know.

To address vBulletin depending on what is currently stored in the database field it would be more than simple to change it so that it will display "N/A" instead of 12/31/1969.

Is this how you spend your free time? Searching the nooks and crannies of AGN?
