    I like reading what posts I (or other people) have made in the past and seeing what stupid things I have said :lol:

    But if I search for all posts, it returns only the last 500. Can you change it so that it displays all posts? Or is there a reason for this limitation?

    I was just wondering...

    The limit is set in vBulletin to avoid huge database queries.

    Try going to the advanced search and searching in just some sections for posts by that user. You can also search by date range there which can help you find older ones.

    The Advanced Search link is on the normal search dialogue.
