By the way, if you’re wondering about the Charter Member label, that’s someone who has stayed continually paid-up since the time when the Board went pay (in 2003, I think it was), not necessarily someone who’s been here since the founding of the Board itself (1999). There are still a few of those around, but not nearly as many as there are Charter Members.

The number at the very end is the person’s serial number here, so mine indicates that I’m the 41[sup]st[/sup] person to sign up, way back in March of 1999.
You can also click on the name and a little popup will give you the option to view the member’s public profile, or as I look at it, the “do they have a life?” page, as it will list how many posts they’ve made, as well as how many posts per day it works out to.
That’s a juicy piece of information. I notice a few close to the source in this very thread, including #2. More likely sooner than later I’ll encounter #1, unless someone would like to share.

As ‘Guest’ I don’t have that privilege.

Be glad to.
User #1 was a test account, now deleted.
#2 is the lowest you’ll find, and you’ve had the pleasure of her presence in your thread.
To save you the trouble, I’m #207.
And there is a solution to your dilemma: Register.

There is no #1; that was also our first corrupt file of the database and it became unusable.

If I’m in the mood to chat, I’ll fire up AIM. Otherwise, you can reach me by email. This is NOT an Official Admin Answer. I suspect, but do not know for sure, that the Official Admin Answer is something on the lines of board performance. Do not take that as an Official Answer, either.

Want a little syrup to go with that waffle, Lynn?
( Ducks, tries to run, * CAN NOT ESCAPE* the awesome power. Is crushed much like a bug. Hell. I turn 45 in 20 minutes. Can you imagine a better way to shuffle off this mortal coil ??? )
To answer the query, I’d rather not be seen as Online or Offline either. Our posts have timestamps. If one is in a “hot thread” and one realizes that one is posting against others posting in real time, then you know who is online and who is not as a result. That’s frequently fun.
Otherwise, why would it matter if I was online or not?
More to the point, since I’m about to be smited ( Smote? Smitted? Smoten? Hmmm… :dubious: ) for my insolent post, I suppose my thoughts on whether or not I show as Online aren’t really relevant. :eek:
Cartooniverse, who prays like a muthah that Lynn Bodoni at least smirked at my joke. Perhaps a guffaw?
Perhaps not…
I’m UserID # 2964, and yet I am a Nintety-Niner. That means that quite a few folks were signed up in the early days. Of course, not all are still posting ( primping. What the hell. I’ll be slain soon enough, might as well primp !! ).
Still, it’s interesting to me that we had that many registered names by Oct. 1999.

Thank you very much for the invitation. I think I will.

There is no #1; that was also our first corrupt file of the database and it became unusable. That was my original registration. I’m further down the list now. Doesn’t matter.
[/QUOTE]
It certainly does matter. Glad to know who #1 is! No one can even say you’re #1-asterisk since it diminishes no one else, being unoccupied.

This is just a lie to prevent people from discovering the real truth about the SDMB.
