Title: Is BItcointalk username a "Name" in your profile or it's a number?
Post by: AntonioE on November 01, 2017, 01:28:04 AM
Recently I registered under a specific airdrop token and they askfed for my username. Usually I use my name that can be seen in my profile however the airdrop asked for ID number instead a name why is that? If you will ask for that specific airdrop form I will give it to you.

It is much better so they can view your profile and others also just by attaching your UID (User ID). E.g. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=(insert UID) and if you're wondering what's your UID, it's 1244056. How to find it? In this thread click your name which will redirect you to your profile and observe the link.

Thank You but I already knew it however it confused me because if they asked for the profile link I will give them my profile link with user ID but some airdrops asked for username not profile link, it will be easier for them so they don't need to search for the names.
