+deimos444 Posted February 27, 2007 Share Posted February 27, 2007 I have not visited the forums for awhile and I seem to remember that hovering over a screenname on a forum post would show the member number. Is this a true statement or a phantasm of my unsettled mind? I tried a forum topic search and came up emptyhanded. Link to comment

If you hover over the user name, and look at the bottom of your browser, (If you are usning IE at least.), you will see the member number at the end of the string there. Link to comment

But isn't the "30,939 account holders" just the number of members who have added logs in the last 7 days? I've never assumed that was the same as the total number of account holders. Of course, that figure does (roughly) represent the number of account holders "using geocaching.com" in the past week.... --Larry Edited March 1, 2007 by larryc43230 Link to comment

In the board statistics at the bottom of the main forum page you can hover your mouse over the Newest Member's name and get a general idea of what number they are on. Current person is Ambul8tor, #998288. So at least you can figure out how many logins exist for the site, in general... Nobody knows how many of them are active, so it is pretty meaningless. -J Link to comment

And of course the only time/usuage you can find out is for the last week from the main page . Link to comment

+Theseus Posted March 5, 2007 Share Posted March 5, 2007 (edited) Am I missing something? Why did this thread go moribund even after we hit the milestone? I wonder if she has any idea. Even though the number of active numbers is far smaller it's still a pretty cool milestone. Sincerely, Cacher 43,161 EDIT: I see the countdown continued at Cornerstone4's subsequent thread.
