What would you all think about a "Latest Posts" feature?

[Mayberry Machiavelli]

Perhaps when you are looking at a poster's profile, you could click "Lastest Posts" and it would show a page full of links to the last 10 or 20 posts they have made.

That way if you see that every single one is parroting a right wing talking point or whatever, it saved you a few steps of work, doing an advanced search, typing in their username etc.

Would something like this be possible? Is there a place to post suggestions for the forum? :shrug:

1. I like this idea! n/t

[Octafish]

2. Certainly separates the stems from the seeds.

See patterns, too.

3. That would be a definite time-saver

:D

4. Would people use it discredit an idea by that poster if they could not do so on it's merits?

I don't spend time tracking what other people post, don't care too. I agree on one thread, not on another.

Some folks though love to follow others around and such (had some do that to me when i pissed in their wheaties one time - as though everything I posted from then on was not true/etc - weak ass arguments from people who had already lost the debate).

5. I love this idea. Thanks for the suggestion, hope it is possible. nt

6. I'd really like that! rec'd

There are posters here whose posts I look for because I really want to read them. People like Bvar22 for instance.

Could we get this feature?

8. Yeah I hadn't actually considered the use of it to seek out a GOOD poster's posts, LOL.

11. I love it!

That's a great idea...

Maybe you could PM Skinner or EarlG and give them a link to this thread.

:hi:

13. I did just that, CaliforniaPeggy.

12. Love the idea.

14. The only purpose I can think of is if someone wanted to be an Elliot Ness for trolls

what's the point?

[SlipperySlope]

19. Could also track down posts from people you agree with.

Hmmm, that's a really insightful post, I wonder what else she has written? *click*

15. Type the screen name in the search block, select all forums, select

time frame from last 24 hours to any of the longer periods available. The screen will show threads, and if one is seeking the posts the screen name initiated - that can be done in a matter of moments.

Advanced search is similar.

16. Great Idea !!! - K & R !!!

Curiously... when I went to Rec from +7 to +8... it stayed at +7...

Somebody here, does not want to be found out, LOL!

:evilgrin:

:kick:

17. I think it would encourage everyone to become vigilante troll hunters

It would lead to name calling and pile-on behavior on posters, rather than polite alerts to the mods.

Just do it the old fashion way and search by author like the rest of us. :P

18. Why? Most discussion forums have this feature already. Why babysit? n/t
