What's the lowest ICQ number you have seen?

[robbear7]

I was talking to a friend via ICQ and noticed his number was 9 digits long. It occured to me that my 7 digit ICQ number is pretty darn old. I got to thinking and I've had my ICQ number for about 10 years now. I got to thinking more (scary huh?) and starting pondering on who might have the lowest (oldest) ICQ account number.

My number is 1661231. Is it common to see that low of a number with ICQ folk or can I safely assume this is quite unique nowdays?

I know.. it's January 1st and I'm quite bored obviously

Hey Rob! Long time no see. Good to see your site's back up.

I've got a 7-digit number, too. I used to have a 6-digit ICQ number originally, but let I quit using ICQ for a while and eventually forgot it. I never imagined that anyone would really care about "the number."

Since ICQ has over 100,000,000 registered accounts, I'd say it's probably pretty rare. If you can find a 6-digit number, some people even pay money for them!

It is so nice to have my site back up. My life is that website and having it down for 3 months was miserable. Unfortunately I lost quite a few regulars and it may take some time to rebuild the visitor count to where it was before the site was down.

Anyways.. staying on topic. If you could recover that 6 digit number you could make some money. Heck, I'd be all over that opportunity. My number was idle for 5 years until one day I was able to search out the number on icq.com and actually remembered the password.

Rustedtight, our retired moderator used to have some 6 digits numbers, but I believe they got hacked.

my number is 965569 have been using icq since 1997 thats why its low... if u have a 9 digit number and its hard to memorise then u can register and email from http://mail.icq.com and sign in using ur email address u dont have to sign in via ur icq#. One thing though u must have an icq# to register an ICQ Mail account.

DoS, you mentioning getting your 6 digit icq number 7 years ago got me to thinking. I initially calculated almost 10 years ago for my 7 digit number, but after putting my brain to work it was actually more like around 7 years ago.

I wonder if they will ever hit the 1,000,000,000 count? That number is one billion in case you didnt want to take the time to count all the zeroes

My ICQ is 103623, I use it now because it was one of my first, and the lower #'s are important these days lol.

I have 259487 also, but it wont always connect for some reason. Also, I have 485290 but ICQ unregistered that one.

The lowest #'s I have seen were 5 digit when I was a beta tester. I had ICQ "workers" add me to thier lists.
