Over a quarter million strong and growing...

How long do you think it will take to reach half a million?

From one of the newbies, thanks indeed for this wonderful site. Well done, but don't stop!!, please

Wow,Wow lets keep it going.

I love it when we hit these big milestones. It makes me happy to know that you guys value them as much as I do.

Miss POI

Thanks to MaryAnn, Jonathan and all those who contribute. I have been really enjoying this site since I found it.

tailspin, how did you find out your member #? I'm sure mine is way bigger than yours.

And thanks!

Sure we do!! We're a family and are excited about any member of the family and their successes.

I do believe, however, you and John deserve a lot of the credit for the success of the site. You're the ones who had the dream and worked to get it up and running. I personally would like to express my appreciation for all your hard work. You both should be made COD (Contributor of the Decade).

and look in browser at the top. When I click your name this appears http://www.poi-factory.com/user/246010 and you then see the member number

Cheers

Haven't been to another GPS/POI site in over 6 months. Some may say that I'm missing out on something, but I don't think so.

Great site layout.
Great members.
Great place to vent, brag and ask questions.
Great owners - MaryAnn and Jonathan

Thanks to everyone.

Edit: Oh yeah, didn't know I was member 129124.

Thanks to MaryAnn, Jonathan and all those who contribute.

When I first went looking this past December, after getting my new toy, this is the first site I found. I guess I'll go looking for other sites after I finish reading all I can here. I'm not sure I can read as fast as some of you out there can type though so I may be a while.

I was member #77842 @ 2 years 43 weeks. Even more of a show how fast people have joined.

Thanks MaryAnn and Jonathan for all your hard work!

Miss POI and the Team are the very best buddies one can hope for, and this page is one of the very first I check every morning. There's great info, great fun too - And we don't limit our group to just one brand or other, this Community has a real open mind!

Let's keep up the good work, and thanks once again to our beloved Admins !

Say - should we try and make stickers, or badges we could wear, or sumthin ? Or maybe locate us all on a map ? Or just add a small flag of our area next to our Avatars ?

Nice.

WoW!

I'm over three years involved with this wonderful site now, and wondering where the time has gone!

MaryAnn and Jonathan have not only taken on the enormous task of building and maintaining such a massive work, but have done it extremely well! Their level of devotion has touched the lives and hearts of the many. How they keep track of this many moving parts all the time is a big mystery to me, and yet they continually improve it to make it bigger & better. They even keep it technically user-friendly, as well as a clean, friendly, and welcoming place. No wonder Poi Factory is such a BIG success!!!

My biggest thanks to MaryAnn and Jonathan for actively being such wonderful & giving people! I also think that over a quarter of a million people will totally agree with me that Mrs. Poi being so photogenic and incredibly beautiful has certainly not hurt anything either!

This site is an AWESOME place for beginner and old-hand alike!

-It's not just a site... it's truly an adventure-

Of course you don't have to answer this if you don't want to, Miss, POI, but what material gain do get from the Factory? What's in it for you and Jon? Since you don't advertise, how do you even pay for this site? Do you and Jon have "regular" jobs?

You have really created quite a special place!

My old Magellan Explorist had very few Mcdonalds in the outdated database, especially in northern Iowa. A google search led me here.

Of course we value these. And it definitely show that this site is well thought out and the spirit is running high, all the credit to you and Jonathan.

A quarter of a millions; that would be quite a get together BBQ...

Simon

Been here for 3 years and 28 weeks. I was Member 29075 when i joined. I guess 3 years from now we will be at 500k. Thanks to a great poi site.

I feel so old!

I'm member 215448, and I joined 44 weeks and 5 days ago.

If I find the time later today, I'll try and compute the average newbies per day since that time

...your cursor over the person's log in name and it will display their number at the bottom of the screen. (For example, I am 177309 and you are 246010.)

68455, enjoying the POI-Factory for all the information it provides! Really cool! Thanks Maryann & Jonathon!

Yep. That's how long I've been with POI Factory!
Oh, and my member number. 1771

Guess that makes me a plank owner, eh?

Thank you Maryanne and Jonathan and to all those contributors who have made this the premier POI website.

Cheers!

Miss POI is number 4 so who is number 1? Maybe John?

This is Great News...keep up the work and enjoy the Great value...Thank You....

User 1 is named Zadmin, User 2 is POI Factory, and User 3 is JM - would that be Jon ?

Ah, we can't be told who User 0 is... But the next longest-lasting member would be Weinstock.

Now I ain't tell ya how I figgerd that out, let's keep it a secret, shall we ?

Such a
great site!

Thanks!!

Yes!

Many thanks to the ALL-

Especially Miss Poi and Jon!

Great place, helpful people, useful information.

How can you tell what your membership number is?

Fred

...your cursor over the person's log in name and it will display their number at the bottom of the screen.

Fred...you are number 36120

I have to find out what number I am. Is it in your profile?

Great Site with a wealth of information

As the say on the Amazing Race Tazmnaz your are number 255656
Just run the mouse over your name and it will tell you what your number is.

Just move your mouse pointer over your screen name and then look at the status line of your browser window. With IE8, it's at the very bottom of the window.

tazmnaz, you are member #255656.

EDIT: oops, John beat me to it.

happy when you are happy..thanks again for all you do, and have done to assist all of us!

Just noticed I was starting my 50th week of membership. Oh wow, time sure flies when you're having fun / in good company...

Thanks again, Miss POI and Jon. And the other members while we're at it...

Ah, but I believe you'll find ROBERT F. BREUNING is the member with the next oldest Windmill.

A few more, and we won't ned any other source of power, right ?

K, rant's over - and so is my day. See you all tomorrow, bright and early !

Just checked my Status, I'm at 51 weeks and 6 days ! Tomorrow, I'm opening the Champagne - and buying a boat, there's a big Fair in Mandelieu over the weekend

Miss POI, where are our new badges on membership length ? I'm sure you've been busy, just wanted to bring this up once again...

Oh - I just loved the Sleeping Aid joke on the dedicated topic. That would be here:

What a great way to start my day - two awesome news

It's awesome, and a thing of beauty!!!

I third it!

By Golly, but I missed reading those posts last week.

What was I doing ? Well, using my Nüvi 205T on the road..... If that don't beat it all

The more people who find out about this site the more will join.
When friends ask where I get the POIs on thr GPS, I tell them here. The next time I see them they tell me they signed up and then they tell me all the POPIs they downloaded. They tell me that they in turn telll others about it.
Keep up the good work!
