Eeeh... (cue schmaltzy hovis-style background muzak)...when I was a lass... I remember having a five figure icq number and thinking "gosh, this is a cool program - I'll tell my friends about this..." Debbie

I hung on to mine too long, the craze died and I gave it to a friend in the end. Sounds like the stock market actually. :rolleyes: * People were even boasting about low Sonork numbers awhile back... glad that, the number competition not Sonork, died out

Remember 3 weeks ago when we had all the furore over 50000 members? And 2 days ago when we had the 65535? How did it get to 75181 today? :wtf: Could it be there is a virus out there signing up bogus members in an evil attempt to bring us down? :~ Or is the :love: of :bob: just growing uncontrollably?
I knew it would end badly when I first met Chris in a Canberra alleyway and he said 'try some - it won't hurt you'..... - Christian Graus on Code Project outages A moment of silence please.

Because you need to be a member to download all source code here on CP nowdays I think non-members only register to get rid of one or perhaps two zip files that they relly want and then (perhaps) never come back again...

Debs wrote: Christian benefit fund Hey, I've just realised that name is very ambiguous and could completely mislead people into parting with their money! Don't tell Christian of my whizzo idea for his money raising schemes as he might end up buying the wrong flowers for his missus with all the extra dosh he gets, and I'd hate to be the source of marital discord, I couldn't live with myself.:(( Debbie

So, that's why. :rolleyes: Cheers, Simon "From now on, if rogue states want to buy weapons of mass destruction, they're going to have to go on eBay," Mr. Bezos said.

I got only one digit: "8" ("Marbus", not sure if it's my current login, or the previous from where I forgot my password a while ago) -- Alex Marbus www.marbus.net But then again, I could be wrong.

Now that people need an account to download code, all the people who come regularly to download stuff have had to create an acount.
