Is there a user setting to increase the number of posts when looking for a member's complete posting history right up to the very first post (including one's own)?

I'm either having a hard time finding the option to increase the number past 500 or that is the default limit here at FF.

Thanks for helping out a :dunce:

It was a vB default setting, Ronin. I can't figure out how to remove the ceiling altogether, so I just made it an outlandishly high number sure to cover all conceivable post histories for a good long time.

Thanks, Ms. 20.57 posts per day...we'll see how your prediction pans out.

Even my gluttonous count will be covered for a good long time, I'm glad to report. Several zeros were added. ;)

That's on account of SkepticJ's pet and future book. He's one of the keywords.

OMG.

If at any time, O admins, you find that 5 seconds per search is bringing down the server, I'm sure we could add a field to the advanced search page that defaults to 500 but can be increased. If there isn't already a hack for this.
