Forum posts link?

Where did the link go that you could view user forum posts?  Did it get replaced with that horrible ssearch feature?  Before, i could click on a user name, it would take me to their profile and I could click Forum Posts or something like that, and it would display a lists of threads in which the user had posted. 

is that still here?

  • It seems like it's gone ( for the moment I hope ) It was very useful .
  • It's there, just look down and to the left. It's even more helpful now.
  • I had the reverse problem. I usually search myself (RASK1904) and see all the threads I've ever wrote in. I was looking for my fs thread. Now there is only one thread? and not my fs thread some auction thread from xmas. I then did like you guys are saying. and that worked. I always thought there should be the user CP button like on DP. Just tring to help. RASK1904
  • Seems like there are a few changes since the crash or whatever yesterday. Now you can't upload new avatars, and instead of getting PM's in your inbox for thread subscription updates, I am getting emails.



    Just some bugs until things get stable again.
  • The email vs pm for new thread subscriptions was a necessary change. We had people subscribing to every thread in every category (for over a year) and then never returning to the site. These people had a few hundred thousand (unread) PMs clogging the system. I may have to re-visit this issue, but for now it's email-only.

    All image processing has been disable, for now. I know of at least one major bug that if the conditions are perfect, uploading an image can cripple the JRUN server for about 2-3 minutes. I'm thinking this is what crashed the server the other night for over 5 hours.

    The posts link is now two links:

    Forum: Threads Posted In | Threads Started

    The old functionality is "Threads Posted In' (ie, "Posts"). The new functionality shows all the thread that user started, which was a requested feature not that long ago that I liked.

    The new forum advanced search was also an attempt to reduce BOT activity and is much more resource-friendly.

    Which horrible search feature? The new advanced search screen? It's hard to make you guys happy sometimes.

    I love the new "Threads posted in | Threads Started" option. Thanks for the updates, it hasn't crashed once on me since you made the changes! I don't even mind getting the emails instead of PMs.

    I also noticed that instead of the max 100 posts per page, it has been dropped down to 50.

    I'm not sure what he is complaining about to be honest. Some people just don't like change I guess.

    Correct. Again, this is a load issue that I'm trying to experiment with.

    I'm sorry, is feed back not welcomed?  Didn't know i would get attacked for a simple question. 

    I don't like how the new feature lists everything th at was posted.  I liked it how you could see each individual topic that someone has posted in.  If you post pictures or anything big, then you still have to scroll through that in the new search feature.

    Thanks for the clarification
