I'm sure someone must have addressed this before but i can't find it. I signed
up on Feb 27, 2005, yet i am shown as having signed up on April 3, 1999. Can
anyone tell me who to contact, what to do to get this fixed ?

I don't think it can be done.
I'm a victim to the same bug.
Some time ago, with the last intermediate stats update from Classic Seti to the BOINC database they got the dates mixed up. First it was only for the Classicers, then someone noticed, fixed it, but with the fix came another bug for us just-boincys. And I suspect, the real sign-up dates are lost by now.

So the class of April 3, 1999 will forever remain the biggest of them all, unless something similar will happen with the final Classic -> BOINC stats update

In addition I'd like to say that both fix and bug are on the project side, not on BOINCstats. The Create (Join) date is exported by the project.

Thank you Willy, any suggestions as to who i should email about this ? Is it even worth taking the time to
do so ? I'm sure they must be aware of this situation.

They should be, look in this old threads where I arote about it:

But if it really bugs you, you can post David Anderson, he's on the SSL email list.
