Post Starters

[jimmalenko]

Is there any way to list all the threads an individual has started ? I know the stats tell you how many, but I'd be interested in the original question asked by the user in each thread, as opposed to having to sort though every single post they've ever made.

no it isn't possible.

[shelbyGT]

easy enough answer!

[HatchetMan]

it's possible on other forums, oh well

Not as funny as the pre-edit one, though

Other forums might not be as big as this one.

You mean other than searching for them as topics and comparing them to the author column?

Yes, it would be cool if you could click on the author title and have that column sorted for you in alphabetical order at least.

That would be cool to do in the tools section also, so that you could sort them by liscense or rating or newest or whatever.

I meant as in having a link in peoples' profiles that says "Show all threads started by xxx", similar to the way the "find all posts by xxx" works. By seeing what sort of questions a certain person asks, it c an tell you a great deal about their level of knowledge, or strong/weak areas and I thought it would assist in determining how one should reply to them - whether to get technical, or whether a hand-holding approach is required. I thought it might be a bit easier than sifting through all their replies to other threads as well, which is what we're doing now.

But, if it's no go, no worries. Thanks anyway, B
