JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

With this post I am now four posts away from having 20,000 posts on SA. That's over 4 posts a day for 12 years. However, when I click "find posts by user" it only shows me the past 1,000 posts that I have made. I want to see more of my old posts, all of them actually, so that I can compile them into a book for an art project. How do I do this??

Thanks in advance.

aw frig aw dang it posted:

you could probably go to the Search The Forums page and use 'userid:163862' and the 'before:' keyword to kind of step your way back a thousand posts at a time

oh hey thats a good idea! I’ll keep everyone informed if that works. I have to write a script to poll all hundred pages that are returned, and the returns expire after like 5 minutes, so it has to be sort of smart.

(3 posts remain till 20k)
