Who are your SD neighbours?

I’m User #19810.

User #19809 is Rayne Man, who is still around. He joined in January of 2001 and then no one else signed up till me in March of 2002. That can’t be right.

User #19811 was Seahawk, who was banned after 15 posts.

Prior to me is user fskelly who has made 0 posts since joining.

After me is poopypants with 3 posts in IMHO.

Currently active members don’t start popping up 'til Typo Knig 11 users ahead of me, and Jimson_Jim 8 users behind me, though neither of them are frequent posters.

Wasn’t that the period of “The Winter of our Missed Content?”

The URL in my profile is http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/usercp.php?
Where’s the numbers? :confused:

I was going to make a disparaging comment about the guests on either side of me (one zero-poster and one 4-poster) but then I looked at what KPatton posted - Placing coins on brides nipples

Besides that, gonzomax is the closest registered member that’s done anything. Responsible for the amazingly popular bees disappeared thread

Merhouse - 471 posts
and
Newton meter - 469 posts

Jake…click on your own username in your post. Then click public profile. You’ll then see your number.

The Winter of Our Missed Content was indeed the winter of 2002, but I can’t believe no one signed up between January of 2001 and March of 2002. Maybe a bunch of posters were lost in the shuffle?
I signed up in November or December, and had to sign up again when the Board came back on-line.

I’m user number 8888 which I think is a very cool number.

Neuroman is right before me with an average of 1.37 posts per day and a post count total in the 6000s. He’s making me look lazy.

Just after me is Scope who never posted. You think maybe it was my breath?

johnnieboy and swifty.

johnnieboy liked golf and fishing.

swifty was from Massachussetts and liked skydiving. His signature was “Blue Skys!”. Alas, we never saw it, for neither swifty nor johnnieboy ever made a single post.

I think what I’ll remember most about swifty was that he was not a member of any public groups.

My number is 2680. Neighbor to the south is Vada, nine posts, last activity in April of 2000, and neighbor to the north is tatertot, 2633 posts, last activity in June of 2002.

It’s lonely down here in the lower user numbers. snif.

I’m number 31484.

31483 is Jayvius, who’s never had anything to say here.

31485 is Codeloss, who made 10 posts, most recently in early 2004.

Their neighbors include Lobelia Overhill (31482) who’s still around as of the other day, and Trygve who hasn’t said much lately at all.

Thanks, Honey
Turns out to be 1988, with no interesting neighbors. I was hoping for 666!

I’m # 59907.

My next-door neighbors are both guests: **So Effen Money ** with 2 posts, and **Floppers ** with none.

Closest neighbors who are actually members are **Mrs. Meta ** with 6 posts and Shizaru with 201.

I’m not in very impressive company. Right before me is email it, a guest who never posted a word. Immediately after me comes DeleriousSam another guest who never posted.

Looking around, the nearest actual poster before me was another guest by the name of Peg Leg (4 before me) who posted a whopping 2 messages. The nearest member before me is Dead Pete, twelve before me.

Heading the other direction, the nearest poster after me is phantomshrek a guest 2 users after me who posted 9 times. The closest member (11 users) after me is BallisticMystik, a member with zero posts.

I feel lonely.

I signed up back in 2001 because you needed to be a member in order to use the search function.

My neighbors are Boddah with 0 posts, and Remo with 5 posts.

Neighbours:
Kevbo
Shagnasty

Two door down:
OneCentStamp
SkipMagic
All active :slight_smile:

It does tend to make the street not very child safe. Shagnasty loves to come screaming down the street, sliding right into his garage.

I’m 12515.

12514 was Doozer - total posts: 0

12516 was Zweistein, with 244 posts. His last post was a thread he started about not paying to subscribe, as credit cards weren’t common in his country and he was worried that the board would polarize towards US-only after pay-to-post.

Closest prolific posters on either side are celestina (12504) and Labdad (12525).

I’m #25429. Joining right before me was Gaijin, whose signature is the Biblical quote “See how a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.” Gaijin’s works included 131 posts between join date (9/15/2002) and most recent activity (5/23/2003).

I was followed by starry, a “non-us student” who never posted. Indeed, there are no currently active Dopers within a 20-spot radius of my place on the list. If this board acquired new members through a draft, the person who served as general manager on those mid-September days about four years ago would have long since been fired in disgrace…

Things are pretty bad in my neighborhood also.

Rugy at 27,005 has 17 posts.

Smollie at 27,007 has 0 posts.

Things don’t get a lot better if we move along the street either. The ten posters on both sides of me have a total of 715 posts. Not so bad you might think, but 657 of them belong to MrTuffPaws.

I’m thinking of selling my number and purchasing one in an area that is less of a potential crack haven. I see that there is some property with potential next to El-Kabong. If x would sell we would have three posters in a row with a total of 8,300 posts. Probably has good schools in the area too.
