    Just go to their user profile and third down under their avatar find all posts.

    As you know there are always ongoing site updates but unfortunately a while ago, probably around last quarter '09 after a major update load of posts were lost from the system, I know I lost about 1500. The post count is correct though, you just can't see them anymore.

    I dont think they are lost because you can still find them if you go back through the threads. It seems to be a issue with the search parameters, ie. the search is only going back a year or so.

    Sorry, you are correct, lost probably wasn't a good word, I suppose you could say the system misplaced them somewhere in it's index files, now only us users can find them if we go looking, sort of like the fake photos really
