I keep getting emails from people for a "responsible disclosure", telling me everyone can see usernames when they Google "intitle:"index of" “/usernames". Lol Cheesy
I've now added an info.txt file pointing at this topic.

is the code you are using to scrape free? I wanted to take a look maybe Smiley
I use free open source tools, but my code is not public. Basically, I download the latest user profile, and check if it exists. If it exists, I'll go to the next one. If it doesn't exist, I'll wait a few hours and try again. That's it. So if the forum somehow skips one userID, my script doesn't reach the next one until I intervene.

What happened to userID 3604953? This one was skipped, which made my scraper think it's not in use so it was stuck for a week.
It's working again, but I'm curious what caused this.


LoyceV a question: I wanted to ask you something, is the code you are using to scrape free? I wanted to take a look maybe Smiley

What happened to userID 3604953?~

I discovered this same ID looping on BPIP's parsers around the 22nd of January, which I had to skip, to keep the parsers going. I didn't realize it was effecting others though, we saw it more as a bug on our end, which we've been monitoring.

It's possible, but I don't have it. BPIP shows it, so maybe @suchmoon or @ibminer can give you a database dump for this?
Alternatively, you could just check one in every 1000 profiles, that should give you a pretty good estimate of the other registration dates. Scraping all profiles (3.5 million) just for this would take 6 weeks and seems like a waste of forum bandwidth.

I understand. Thanks for the feedback.

For the intended purpose, it would only make sense to have the dates right, at least from the oldest members.
I'll try to see with @suchmoon or @ibminer if they can help.

Is it possible to obtain a list of users, including the registration date?

Keep in mind that this one does not work with changed nicknames. You'll get error like trying to test mine:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;user=TheBeardedBaby
It does however, link to the new username's profile if you put in their old username. I guess, if the user changed their username for privacy reasons, could potentially be an issue. Although, there's other ways to find that out, so probably not that critical.

Wow, after all those years, I never new this was possible Shocked
Yeah, not something I even considered trying. Good to know for the future, though.

Interesting. I’m about few years not be here. a lot has changed, but not LoyceV as he worked for the benefit of the community and continues this noble cause.  Glad to see you. Should be anything changed in the list after my post?

Thanks for this, it will come in handy, especially for data dumps that show usernames instead of userIDs!

I often need to find the userID that goes with a username. I can't easily get this from the forum

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;user=LoyceV

You can use 'user=[username]' parameter for a query easily enough. Once you're to the user profile, you can pull the user ID from send a message ahref [or other parts of the profile].

I meant accounts like this. he was registered, stayed for one minute and never returned back, or did not return under that username.
has only a website on its profile and it is most likely an account created to make a backlink to that site. this is one case, but I've seen a lot of them even without website link in profile.
At some point Bitcointalk accounts were used to spam backlinks: I've seen certain backlinks on (tens of) thousands of profiles. It would have been better to hide the Website link for users with evil fee.
I believe that accounts that are evil banned are not able to post links in their profile anymore. I am not sure what happened to the accounts that did this before this was changed. It would probably be best to have websites removed from evil banned accounts, if they haven't been already.
