Well, you must have been registered here when the Forum didn't exist.
But I don't remember how many users were here when I registered.

I have ID number 240
Pity vets are numbered in alphabetical order and case sensitive, else my number would have been lower.

Why did you not register as "Abhorrent Dolphin"?

As a side note I can say that I'm 9493 person in the member list, and has number 9561 which would mean that 68% of the deletions after the upgrade would be of people that registered before me.

Sagacious Dolphin is only my most recent username. I registered under a different name. I also posted as Big Crunch for about a year.
I don't think Abhorent is the adjective I want to use.

Damn, that means I missed #16384
I remember when it hit 2,000 (or was it 3,000?) but I don't think I was already registered back then (my id is 4367, so I guess not)...

Yeah, but guess who's got the lowest number (which, surprisingly, is 2 and not 1 or 0), the sneaky bastard
(Let me give you a hit: it's one of the owners of the site and it's not Markos)

Going through in order the first valid user number after DanQ(going 1,2,3,....) was this one
Number 6
Is Bill someway important. More curiously, he has a register date of 2001. What's going on there????

Stange. I think it might have something to do with the upgrade to vBB rom UBB. IIRC his date is the day of update, and he would have got before in the list or something.

You should all let us know when you change names!
I was sure you're just another vet who returned after a year of not posting.
I'm number 6238. But I didnt post for the first couple months, though I still remember when it hit 10k.

I'm 2596. Didn't know I was that early! Must've been about the date .owo shut down.
I'm also approaching the non-existant post count rank of King+Prince.

Maybe, but the number seem to only tell parts of the truth. (I'm number 9493 in the list sorted by join date.)

How would we go about doing this? I recently changed my name from "technophile", but I assumed that few enough people would care that it seemed silly to start a "Hey everybody, I changed my name" thread. I just assumed that anybody who cared about the name change would be able to figure it out from my sig, and the majority who didn't care didn't need to be explicitly told.

Did you not notice the "Superman affect". When SD started posting BC was nowhere to be seen? 
I would also have thought my posting style would have given me away a bit. But then most people found out who I was pretty quick - based on my location field "of Kent" Immortal Wombat promptly informed all the "Who is Sagacious Dolphin?  " ponderers of my previous identity.
