how to see more than 500 posts

Heya

If you click on someone's profile to view all their posts, you can only see the last 500. How do you see more than that without searching through each thread?

Help!

If you go to advanced search and and go to "Find posts from" you can search from previous dates, you still get 500 posts but they can be from over a year ago or more. also if you select "in descending order" from the "sort results by" option you should get their first 500 posts, (maybe) it's been awhile since I have done this.

You can never see more than 500 posts at once, but, as mentioned in the post above, if you go to Advanced Search you can specify a time frame and ascending or descending order, amongst other things.

stuponfucious: in all likelihood, to enhance forum performance and prevent people from reviving long-dead threads. i'm not sure which of the 2 are more important to the admins, though.
