Well folks - that's right! - The 200th OzSTOC Member just registered today - not bad out of nothing, not so long ago!    :runyay

We must have the best 200 people around because this site is a lot of fun and very informative!    :thumbsup

Like many of you, I have made a lot of great friends on this site, and find it a great place to be.

Thankfully you don't have much else to do but moderate or posts.   :grin

The 200th to join was RockyR, two more since. No we dont have a number.

I could be No1 due to the number of posts or I may need to get a life.

I reckon it's about time you Mods with all that spare time on your hands allocated numbers based on the order of joining up.
Shouldn't be rocket surgery!!   :grin

Wasn't it Patrick Magoohan that said "I AM NOT A NUMBER"!?

This is like saying that when I joined the RAF we didn't have ID cards, we all knew each other!

I agree,

I think we should have numbers. Not as a form of Hierarchy but just to give members an idea of how long other members have been members eg If someone asks a question about something, some members MAY think, "We covered that problem about XX months ago, why bother answering it again?".

If a member number was attached to their name, as in our STOC numbers, it would give people an idea of their length of membership and either answer the question or refer them to a certain post etc.

I can see where Tipsy's coming from, I've had a 'Regimental Number' for the past 39 years, but so long as you're not being referred to as simply  '5874' I can't see any problem. And by the way, I'm not advocating being referred to, as in my case, Roper5874, that was a name of my choosing. Most members are aware that my name is Dave and refer to me as such or they call me roper.

Is it really that important? I've NEVER received an answer on STOC referring to me as a 'Newby' or told to shut up because I've only been a member since Breakfast time. Other members have told me that, this or that was resolved/answered, previously and steered me in the right direction.

FURTHER:- I don't think Diesel or Streak should have numbers, they should be numberless as, to my knowledge, they both had an equal part in getting this great group of loosers like minded, fantastic people together, so I think that the numbers 1 & 2 should be vacant.

I am TRULY sorry that I will not be able to attend the Inaugural Get-together ( BROCK's not the only person going to Thailand at that time ) but I sincerely wish you all the very best at the gathering and hope that I will be able to attend the next one.

Take care all,

Dave                                                                :wht13

I agree with that ropey bloke.
It's not a Big Brother Number like your car licence, Tax File or Passport.  (Your Tax File Number is the one The Gummint knows you by, you probably realise).
It's part of being a member, and it shows your "experience" in the Forum.  My FarRider number is an achievement, but my STOC number (which others include in their signature) just shows I've been around.
Don't tell Tipsy his- he doesn't want it.
You could give Number One to both the Founding Fathers and have no 2, just 3 etc.   :thumbsup
