Is it in any particular order? I just searched for Notsogrand as I wanted to see what the "silly slipper situation" was that she mentioned in a post. (I think I must have missed it) It seems quite hard to find a particular post.

It's probably just me. hmm

Hi whatis

The search listings are currently listed in alphabetical order of the topic that they're in. It's worth bearing in mind though, that the search facility doesn't actually check through the usernames of posters, only the words in their post. So you'll only get results where people have referred to the poster you're talking about by name.

It might be easier to search for something more unique that is in the actual post - like "slipper" or something in this case? You can also see a list of a poster's most recent posts on their profile if they have one.
