Registration Date
 

You know, despite what it says about the date I registared, I can clearly recall making Posts before then. I thought for sure I was making Posts in Novemeber, the month the game was actually released, and I do remember being a bit bent about the delay of the game release, and the cost of shipping.

Yet my offical registration date is 12-18-00.

All is good, I got my game, it was great, and I was a happy bugger for many months. Then talk of gold started to surface and this place exploded with in a frenzy of activity as every one worked to get their projects included on the new Gold Game CD.

SEIV Gold was literally the best money I have ever spent on a game, even beating out Tribes. (And trust me, that was hard)

Well I guess it really does not matter when I registered, most likely my faulty memory, but still it game me something to post about and that makes me happy. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

I just noticed something interesting. I am now member 866. I was member 873. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif I have been promoted. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif Just don't make me member 666 ok. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif

Re: Registration Date
 

Are the member numbers just for this forum? Or the whole board?

Re: Registration Date
 

I just noticed this too.

I used to be Member Number #3150. I'm now #3137.

As for my registration date i don't know if it's right but it's around the time i did.

Re: Registration Date
 

My registration date is right when I registered so that is good.

My member number did change. I used to be 2555 now I am 2543. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...s/confused.gif

Re: Registration Date
 

http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif the member numbers mean nothing unless your searching for something. Just make sure you now have the members new number.

Re: Registration Date
 

At first I thought you had forgotten your name changes of the past. You were 'PCP Atrocities' originally. The old name used to be searchable in the member records but I bet now it is not.

But yes, when I check my own profile I see that my member number has changed, too. I was #295 and now I'm #291. So I guess they removed invalid/inactive accounts when they did the conVersion and that bumped all of us up a bit.

Re: Registration Date
 

Actually, the search now takes user names, not member numbers. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

He registered both of those on the same day so that noone else would be able to steal his usual internet aliases...

Re: Registration Date
 

Hmmm...I'm now member 4285 instead of 4298. Gained 14 places!

Re: Registration Date
 

I gained only 13 places. Before I had #3500, now #3487.

Re: Registration Date
 

That's interesting. I gained 7 places from #638 to #631. If the theory is true that it has to do with inactive members, and Renegade13 is #4285 and gained 14 'positions', then this forum has a tremendous 'retention ratio'. That is (if the theory holds) there were only 7 out of 3650+ forum Users that 'went away' or became inactive for some reason.

If that's true, that's gotta be some kind of record. Think about it a little http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/shock.gif.

Re: Registration Date
 

OR...

they used extremely lax criteria for deciding which entries to remove. It might be people who haven't logged in within the Last year. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Registration Date
 

Hmm, I wish I remembered what my old member # was. I don't remember so I can't say how much it has changed.

I *think* my old number was 3449 but I'm not sure. If correct, that means I went up by 8 because now it's 3441.

Re: Registration Date
 

This is a good idea to thin the database. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Re: Registration Date
 

hmmm, I'm member #2853 and I think I was like #3451 before. That's quite a jump, But I'm not sure that I remember my old member # Do any of you know/remember what Number I was?

Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

P.S. My Registration date has not changed, May 16, 2002.

Re: Registration Date
 

Well I seem to remember I was member 4000 and something. I'm still #4000 and something, so not much has changed.

Re: Registration Date
 

My registration date hasn't changed either... Let me check my number...

Re: Registration Date

Re: Registration Date
 

A sure sign that you post too much: if you actually remember somebody else's previous member number! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif

Re: Registration Date
 

I believe my registration number decreased a few spots, but my registration date is still the same.
