Instead of someone being identified by their member number, how about their name?
So, instead of Chris's profile url being http://next.militate.com/board/?do=profile&id=[color=#FF0000]1[/color] it could be http://next.militate.com/board/?do=profile&id=[color=#FF0000]chris[/color]
What do you think?
The reason I though of this suggestion, is because I was thinking of the custom bbcode feature, and having the memebr be identifited this way would allow for something like this in the future [user=chris]chris[/user] and then his name is automatcally linked to his profile when I post, had I turned [user] into a custom bbcode.
Just a thought for the final version :afro

I'm just saying, you know how one of the features will be a flexable BBCode thing (like on IPBv2.0 they have custome BBCodes). Well, if the users were ID'd by their name, rather then their number, then I could make a custom code like this

That screen shot was taken from the IPB Admin CP, but shows what I mean.
If the user ID was based on the name rather then the number, it would be easier for people, if people wanted to use that code (cause all they need is the name to input, not a number they might not know/remember).
