Can you tell how old is a BitcoinTalk Profile by it's number?

So my profile link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1245994 . Can you tell by this number "=1245994" how old it is? Or, is there a general rule of this number?

You could check that some how, but unless you know let's say when the account 1005 was created, you can estimate when the 1150 was (probably on the same day/week)

There is No rule except that numbering goes up with 1 after each registration. If you know How many accounts were created each week from the start of the forum till now you can make an expectation And calculate when an account has been made, if not just press on the account link it’s the easiest way.

I am more like interested to guess the year, so this should narrow the search somehow. But how do I know which number reprezents what year.

These numbers don't represent date when account was created. It's just a number of user.
For example, Satoshi have user ID 3, it means that he is 3rd registered user on forum. Your account on forum is 1245994th. It means that there are more than 1.2 milkion registered users.

Why not just view the profile. You can see when the user is registered. As to your account, it's October 24, 2017, 05:32:47 PM. As you can see, this information is public and you don't have an option to hide it nor anyone else unlike the case of your e-mail. No need to go such great lengths.

P.S. You can know when that account is registered thru its UID by the aid of forum's stats but it would not be that accurate to do so.

Thanks thats actually pretty useful when verifying in airdrops and stuff. But yeah since the number goes up after each registeration then you can have a rough estimate of when the account was registered by only looking at the number.
