 Yes you read that correctly! A few moments ago our 200,000th member signed up to the forums!
This is a huge milestone for us, we never could have imagined when we started this website a few years ago that we'd have grown so fast. With well over a million visits per month and the No1 spot as the largest GPS Website WorldWide we must be doing something right.
So it gives us great pleasure to extend a warm welcome to our 200,000th user duckfoot. To mark the occasion we've awarded him lifetime subscriber status with free access to the safety camera database. we hope you'll find our website useful and the camaraderie of the other members who will no doubt join in saying hi.

Congratulations, and welcome onboard.
Who would have believed that when we started pocketgpsworld.com (as it was then) that we would have such a huge community now. Here's to the next 200,000...

You Sir are 253. You can find this by hovering over the 'PM' button. Even I'm only 8 as we created some test accounts in the pre-launch phase!

Not even in the Status Bar at the bottom of the screen?

Actually the number associated with the userid is not quite the exact one as we jumped a few in some of the system upgrades that we performed. If your userid number is below 30,000 (ish) then it is accurate. If it is over that then you need to subtract 47 from it.
For some strange reason I am 36 (I wish) I think I started off with a lower number when we built the original system, but switched to my current user after we had finished testing...

In my Firefox when hovering over PM a bubble appears that says.
"send private message"

Yes I get that also but on the status bar at the bottom you get a address to where the PM will be sent too, and at the end its got the number there
