I'm #90 😎

If you want to know your number comment and I'll check o7

You can also check who has a certain ID by completing this url with it https://hexbear.net/create_private_message?recipient_id=

Also also, if you type in your OWN ID you can dm yourself lmaoooooo

The first user to join the site was Liberal (of course) and the second was beatnik

(p.s. if this post blows up please help me check people's IDs lmao)


PSA: if you're terrified of asking people for things, you can do your own by trial and error manual algorithm.

  1. Determine down to the minute when exactly your account was registered by hovering over the "joined X months ago" text on your profile page.

  2. Use OP's URL with a random number at the end.

  3. Determine when that user's account was registered. If their account is older than yours, increase the number and try again. If their account is younger than yours, decrease and try again. If their account is much older/younger than yours, increase/decrease by a few thousand. If it's only a few days older/younger than yours, increase/decrease by a few hundred. And so on. Should take no more than twenty or thirty attempts.

      Gotcha; for what it's worth, it does the same thing if you submit any other invalid ID, like 0, -1, or (for now) 69420.

      The API backend returns an HTTP 400 response status with "NotFound" in the response body; this is visible either via your browser's devtools (or Postman/cURL if you're a dev nerd like me).
