            Based upon the time passed between our posts (which is a inaccurate measure of actual signup times) CP should hit 3 mill in about 3 to 4 hours.

                      Since it still doesn't seem to be required to give a valid email address during sign-up* (only for the newsletter) and there is no CAPTCHA/HIP to check that actually a human is signing up I'm wondering how many of the 3,000,000 accounts are actually real people? Are there any statistics on inactive accounts? Cheers Martin *I didn't try to create another account so my assumption is solely based on the sign-up page and could be wrong.

                        Some of us are looking at the Member IDs. The latest member to sign up had 2999656, 344 more to Member # 3,000,000! :-) Regards, Nish

                              Given the way most registrations and their first post go... The 3 millionth member should get one free programming question in the lounge (since we all know that's what's going to happen anyways...).:-D

It opens your eyes to the possibilities and then you start looking for other things like CPhog and your eyes are suddenly open to all sorts of useful things all through Firefox. - (Self Quote)
