1. Why? We can already get that

by doing a search on their name and clicking on their profile.

:puzzled:

2. you can search by author. Go to search, then simple search.

There is an option to search by author, and you can limit the dates also. Another fun thing is to click on "author" on one of the forum pages, which will change the topic list to alphabetically by author.

Used to be DU showed how many total posts, but they redid it yrs back to show only up to 1000, then stuck there.

If you find someone with a hidden profile, hover your cursor over their index card/profile link, and you should see somewhere (bottom of my screen) a link with a number. Make note of the number and check a couple profiles you can see to figure out when they joined.

9. It's not the same thing at all -- you just want threads, &/or posts, in reverse chronological order

there is plenty of use for having the function mentioned -- although one can try to get around the lack.

4. How about a function that prevents people from asking for things that already exist

That would really come in handy

10. This site also has a Spell-Check feature

Comes in handy for those complicated words like "okay"
