How to display complete user post history?

FWIW I can't find the answer via search.

I can only see 10 pages.

Yup, that's it - 250 max AFAIK. You could refine the search to find 250 in a certain date range, or a specific forum, if that helps.

Aww that sucks. I wonder why that is. Thanks anyway, Data range only goes back one year as far as I can tell.

Hmm even if I wanted to go back and manually pull up threads w/o searching I can't since I'm looking for husng posts before it was separated from hunl. hunl forum seems to only go back a few months. (EDIT: irrelevant, but most forums seem to have reset on 04-16-2012.. Must of been when 2+2 went down)

sigh o well.

try something like this...


Google Search

I was going to suggest that, but I don't think it's effective for searching for posts by any one person. But I'm far from a Google search wizard; perhaps someone has a good way of doing this.

user name + 2-3 words from post should find w/e he's looking for

i'm trying find my old posts too and I'm having issues. I posted this in the chat thread:

oh: my screenname was originally Keyser_Soze_, I think, or maybe there was an underscore at the beginning too. Yes, it's a clever and original screenname, I know.

i can find one archive of posts from around 2007 iirc, but shouldn't all of the posts be visible somewhere? I tried to do a username and date range search but it's giving me no results from ~2005-2006. I've tried both different archives (there are a few, right?). I'm confused.

I use google to find old Henry17 gems.

It's to limit server load. Searching is a relatively intensive process compared to viewing pages.
