there's probably a thread about this somewhere already, but impossible to find. What is the approximate highest number?

and actually, here's a question...I just realized that my membership expired for a couple months and I think I got a new number...

    I could have sworn that your number doesn't change if you renew after the expiration date. oh well, I'm just screwed now if I ever want to go to a show without my brother!

    doesn't mean there's 500,000 members, far from it!

    numbers increase every time someone creates an account to buy something, not just a membership (unfortunately that's why people who joined later than other get much better number, simply because they've bought something in the past :()
    since a lot more people are now using the internet and buying on it, the number of actual MEMBERS, let alone active ones, in the <200,000 range is I believe far greater than the number of members in the range above that.

    I think that was actually just a 50*** number and was just misquoted, but can't be sure. I joined June last year and got 408***

    You can email them and plead your case to get your original number back (it's on the site). I'm going to do that, I lost my low number and I'm going to be emailing them giving them the reasons I wasn't able to renew on time.

    depends how long after. 1 months, no (assuming you're renewing under your old login. if you created a new account, of course you'll get a new number!).

    if you let it lapse 6 months, then tough.

    Yeah I emailed them, but I think I just forgot. they should really send you an email or something when it's about to expire! the only reason I thought of it was because I didn't get a christmas single, and I was like hmmm...maybe it expired.

    I actually have no idea how long it was except it was definitely less than 1 year, but honestly that shouldn't really matter, that's arbitrary. I didn't create a new account though, I still have the same one, my whole history back to like 2000 is in my profile.

    I should do that. I joined during Vitalogy and let it lapse, then rejoined during binaural and now I am 409xxx !!

    Agreed, an email reminder would be good.

    i don't think this is true at all. I think a lot of the same people just let it lapse and rejoin again and again. So while there are a lot less than 500,000 members i dont think i can buy a poster now and get 420xxx and then join in 5 years when its 600,xxx and get 4220xxx as my fan club number. That would muck up the whole thing. Not to mention i think the numbers would be a lot higher if that was the case. People just get lazy or forget and than have to rejoin. Plus PJ does ocasionally pick up some new fans.

    I realize this but I don't think that effects the numbers that much....

    What does affect it more is vacant numbers since they do not reissue the number once it's lost by someone.
