I am a little bit puzzled with this board.
Say you read a post of some one and you think that´s interesting.
smart guy or diddin´t think of it that way, whatever.
than you like to read more of him, you go to his profile hoping to find a list with treads he started of posts he contributed.
but no, all you can see is a list with his last posts.
is there a way to find threads which are started by a specific user?

edit:
If you go to there profile, at the bottom, there is a search recent posts feature, just like on your own profile. Just put the number of posts up to the desired number.

Sadly, the only way to look for threads written by certain users is to archive binge and read who started each thread. The easiest way is the search function, though that can still be a mess with someone who has a large number of posts.

I do understand, it has to do with the software running this board.
but I find it annoying only to see recent posts or that the search function indeed makes a mess of the finds with a load of un-related posts.
Well perhaps somewhere in the far future a software update will take care of this little inconvenience
thanks for looking at it.

There's also some in the Painting and Conversions thread, 3 of which are pinned at the top, the tutorials. Hope this helps, maybe once you've found everyones threads you can bookmark them in seperate folders and just update them when someone adds a new thread  |

Nice work Cosmic. Didn't Dadcro also collect a list of threads in his Gems thread? I think he listed authors there. edit: It doesn't list the authors specificaly. I'm just being no help at all today  But in case you didn't read it yet. |

I don't actually start very many threads, really. Most of (in my opinion) my best stuff has been in response to someone else's questions or problems.
Makes me happy to hear that you think my opinion is worth seeking out, tho ;D

thank you guys !! you make me blush  Cosmic, thanks a lot for the list, I wasn´t thinking that you painted so much different army´s. Whow, what a list  painting is a very important part of the hobby for me, including reading painting threads and yours are very inspiring and fun to read. WestRider and Krasimirova the thing is, my first language is not English. that´s not to bad because I can read and write it at a certain level I´m happy with. But to understand all the little details, references and relationships from a Rule Book is a different cup of tea, especially with the sometimes not so easy to understand GW grammar. The comments of you guys are explaining those grey area´s and I like that. Makes things easier to understand. emptyhat, thanks, I didn´t see the Dadcro list before, very useful What I do is indeed bookmark threads I like, but unlike other forums, on this board you can´t make your own folders to store the bookmarks, so you end up with quit a list at the end of the day. But lurking around in a Imperial Guard dedicated envoirement makes up for it. |

What kind of browser are you using that doesn't let you sort your bookmarks into folders? I know with firefox, you can bookmark individual threads and move then into a folder on the bookmark menu.

I think hes referring to the proboards bookmark as ALL explorers have that function That's why I was confused. I figured it would be easy enough to just use the browser to do it. I'll shoot Woz a message to see if he can add the feature, or one that allows you to "subscribe" to certain users (I think someone asked for that too at one point). I wouldn't hold your breath, though, since I don't think Proboards has that kind of capability. Reds |

I think hes referring to the proboards bookmark as ALL explorers have that function Indeed, I´m referring to the proboard bookmarks, which you can use via your Profile. I use Internet Explorer and I can put thread pages as favorites in maps via that browser, and that´s how I will do it. But you miss the functionality that you see in one glimpse which threads have new posts, to see that you need to browse through the maps with favorites. On other boards you can organize this within the functionality of the board itself, enable you to make maps, and at the same time see witch threads have new posts because they are on top of the list, like in this board. Thanks for all the help and suggestions and I do understand the limits of software and this will not spoil my pleasure of lurking around this wonderfull Imperial Guard Message Board |

regarding westrider.. I found this as a sig on another proboard: Aux:"Listen to Westrider like he's the Bible." Westrider: "That's not actually a bad comparison. I'm fallible, subject to human limitation, and often require interpretation " |
