I'm confused... this would be so you could say "hey, I'm i-club member # 235954?" So you could print your member # on your car, on a laminated member card, etc?
If that's the case, then I'm failing to see a real value in identifying people by a membership #, rather than just a handle, that's probably used on other forums as well.
The notion of a club atmosphere is interesting, but I don't see the reality of it, without downsizing considerably. i-club has a very wide appeal today, in part because it is an open forum, doesn't require paid membership, etc.
Membership #'s would seem more applicable to local chapters, if there was organized meets and events, where you would request a membership # for that local chapter... local parts suppliers could enter your membership #, check against DL, and give you a discount, that sort of thing.
Based on the current description, and lack of more info, I'd be against this. It will either be incremental (aka join date) and be a status thing, or it will be a random number that adds clutter.
