Where are the old posts?

[da9000]

I was looking for an old post of mine (on the subject of Opera and Amiga.org) and I couldn't find it in this subforum (Suggestions & Feedback). Yet when I search (I'd hardly call it search as that doesn't work - I have to press "next" a whole bunch of times and use the browser's find command to find the text I want) through my personal postings pages, then I do find my old post and it's on the board.

Is there some sort of time filtering enabled?

There seems to be a drop down that's set to show postings from the last 100 days. Perhaps that's it?

However, when I tried "from beginning of the year" or something close to that, the "Go" button never refreshed the subforum page. Broken?

Maybe it's time to give up the past and dump what we have in favor of a site which doesn't sacrifice usability for the few who don't want to move forward?

No worries. I will persevere because after all it's about those computers an that OS.

It is however a different issue when most of the discussed functionality is all back end (ex: search). That can be changed and it will work for all browsers that access said functionality. However that requires time and effort to spare.

Anyhow, it's no big deal. We can survive. BTW, that's how I searched: profile -> show all posts and Ctrl/Cmd-F.
