Is there a way to pull up threads from 3-5 yrs ago? I've tried the search function + archives(threads are much older) with no luck.

Just tried searching through those, no luck. WTF?! It's telling me 'No matches found' when I'm quite sure there should be threads coming up.

As an example, using gtpitch's link, if you write in a username, (say, El Diablo), and then enter, say, Newer than 5 Years, Older than 4 Years, don't check the Show a preview box, and click Submit, you'll see ED's posts for the year up to May 15 2006.

You can also use google for this btw, for the archives gtpitch linked to for example just add
site:archives1.twoplustwo.com
in front of your search query. This way you can search the archives without using the not so friendly ubb search.

Not sure what you're looking for but search works fine per Mike Haven's instructions.

Maybe not working if you need archives2 which goes until Dec 31, 2015. I searched once and then when I tried again it said I had to wait a few minutes. Tried again and search worked, though the few minutes delay between attempts makes it unusable.

If I try to browse archives2 it doesn't display any threads

I made a bunch of posts back in 2005/2006 and looked at the archives and the Q&A, but apparently the folks here wanted to make it extraordinarily difficult to find old posts someone makes. How do you do it??
