Re: The curious case of the forum's three millionth user

My assumption: nobody cared anymore, so the owner lost interest in this alt-account.

Note that someone tried really hard to hit 3 million:
2999998. 3 Millionth User
2999999. Three Millionth Loser
3000000. Three Millionth User

That's exactly what happened since we know user profile id is visible to any one and we know the latest user id from forum home page.

So it's easy to guess and try couple of profiles to get the exact profile id. I pointed out same last time on WO

A harmless Alt spotted guys....!!

Please tell me you have waited for this... “Three Millionth User”?

Reason: there is no way to know your id before actually creating it. since there's no way to know before, it means you have been trying it.

Well my guess is right... all below three profiles are created by you + forth one
