Condor Posted August 6, 2017 #1 Posted August 6, 2017 I haven't thought about this in years, but do we still have member numbers??
bongobobny Posted August 7, 2017 #2 Posted August 7, 2017 I think so, Jack, but only after the great crash. If you go to the member's profile you will find a link to "this page" with a number on it. http://www.venturerider.org/forum/member.php?43-bongobobny As you can see, my member number is 43, meaning AFTER the great crash of '06 I was the 43rd member to rejoin. In reality, I didn't join until '05, whereas if I recall right, you were already a member before me when I first joined...

I didn't get it to work for me until I removed your handle and went with http://www.venturerider.org/forum/member.php? Then magically my number appeared at the end when I entered the url. 242-Condor. I think I originally joined in '04 or '05 and had quite a few posts by the crash. You accumulate a lot of posts when having problems. My first post like many others was a cry for help right after buying my first Venture. MikeB in San Diego was a big help as well as Hdhtr right here in Carmichael. Surprisingly Steve's office was only a block and a half away.. Never got used to his 'instant' coffee... :-)
videoarizona Posted August 7, 2017 #4 Posted August 7, 2017 Interesting! I tried that and got this number: 5395758! Hmmm....guess I haven't joined yet...I'm a future member....
XV1100SE Posted August 7, 2017 #5 Posted August 7, 2017 If anyone is interested, there are currently 784 members currently
Condor Posted August 7, 2017 Author #7 Posted August 7, 2017 If anyone is interested, there are currently 784 members currently Way down from the good ol' days when there were 2000+. I wonder how many sub-400 members are still hanging in there??

mraf Posted August 8, 2017 #11 Posted August 8, 2017 Where on those pages is a number? I don't see no stinking number.
Condor Posted August 8, 2017 Author #12 Posted August 8, 2017 This is just a thought, but do you have to be logged in???
bongobobny Posted August 8, 2017 #14 Posted August 8, 2017 Where on those pages is a number? I don't see no stinking number.You will find it on your member profile page in a link. For some reason, when I paste the link on the reply it shows up, but when I post the reply the number disappears from the link. Just look at your profile page and you will see a link a little over halfway down...
bongobobny Posted August 8, 2017 #15 Posted August 8, 2017 Where on those pages is a number? I don't see no stinking number. Your number is 233...
mraf Posted August 8, 2017 #16 Posted August 8, 2017 Your number is 233... :scared:Say it isn't so! Why just today a lady driving a caddy told me I was number 1. In fact she was so happy about it, she even stuck her hand out the window so I wouldn't miss it. Bless her heart!
videoarizona Posted August 8, 2017 #17 Posted August 8, 2017 Hmmm! http://www.venturerider.org/forum/member.php?16429-videoarizona I gave you as 16,429... OK...I see it. Thanks Bob!

Condor Posted August 8, 2017 Author #20 Posted August 8, 2017 http://www.venturerider.org/forum/member.php?224-Condor your 224 Condor? now I figured out what you all talking about.... thats kind of cool Whew!! OK now I see it.... Like Bob said it's about half way down the profile page under 'This Page' It gives me the URL and at the end is 224-Condor. I was kinda looking for something that said 'member number'. So now I'm older than I thought...
Condor Posted August 8, 2017 Author #21 Posted August 8, 2017 Doing advanced searches of the member list using join date searches... for the full years below, this is how many members are still active : 2004-2006 =>134 2007 => 48 2008 => 80 2009 => 63 2010 => 49 2011 => 53 2012 => 50 I got carried away a while ago and did a color coded map of the U.S. with member count. I remember CA had around 180, and Texas was at 228 out west. Surprisingly Canada had around 220. Most of the members were in the Eastern US, and the least was I think Montana or SD with 4. Total was somewhere near 2800. Don't know what ever happened to the map, but I suspect it got eaten during one of the HD crashes...
Freebird Posted August 8, 2017 #22 Posted August 8, 2017 The map is still here. Just click "Member Map" in the menu bar.
Condor Posted August 8, 2017 Author #23 Posted August 8, 2017 The map is still here. Just click "Member Map" in the menu bar. Not that one Don. It's one I put together way back in the dark ages. IT was of the U.S. 48 only with color coded states based on the number of members residing in that state. Like 1-50= brown, 51-100= green.... etc. It gave a pretty good look at the member demographics of the board. I did post it but who knows where and when?? Nothing as cool and interactive as the one you have posted now...
Freebird Posted August 8, 2017 #24 Posted August 8, 2017 Oh...ok....I have no idea where that one is. If we could find the post, I may have it archived. It would be way outdated by now anyway.
