🚣RowboatMan: ❄️Freezing time🕰️ is an old P.I. 🥧trick...

I don't understand how it's much harder to search for a username. It's possible, yes, unless they haven't posted. Might be a pointless thing to complain about, but there have been a couple times, talking to goons outside of the forums, where I wanted to add them to my buddy list (but why bother, really; that's kind of a pointless thing in and of itself) but couldn't because they never posted. You're virtually invisible at that point.

Am I wrong about that? If I am, please correct me.

For anyone who wants a potentially better search function, use google. Type whatever you want, and then after it, type

code:
site:forums.somethingawful.com

... and you'll most likely find what you're looking for.

Not yet, and I'm not sure I want to, really. Sure, I've mentioned my job here and there, but I feel like an A/T thread might draw way too much attention, and then somehow I get in poo poo for it at work.

Hahah, then again, it's SA, not Reddit, so maybe no one would care. Is the A/T thread behind the paywall?

Edit: for a quick and dirty A/T, I posted a bunch in the Howard Stern Megathread. It's around March-May of 2015, if that helps.

Not sure if it is documented anywhere but you can just put their username in the URL: http://forums.somethingawful.com/member.php?action=getinfo&username=Rupert%20Buttermilk

Two things: 1) never knew that, I don't think it's documented, and 2) can't they just add that as a quick form on the forums?

Anyway, thanks!

The good man thread in GBS resulted in me meeting my wife whe I posted the OP on a dating site.

We donated 350k to Obamas campaign

I made a budget for a goon who actually listened and ended up pursuing his dream of becoming a stand up comic

Professional heat: when the music guy is horny and ready to gently caress, but he's still keeping cool and business like about it.

I was present (as much as you can be on here) for that. He had posted specific details about Billy buying a ton of gold bullion or something. He was an engineer in the studio.

It got so bad that I actually got a PM from him asking nicely to remove anything from my posts referencing what he posted.

i saved some of the interesting bits about corgan's songwriting processes because that's legit interesting but yeah, most of it was how he was very particular about his bottled water and poo poo like that

probably but knowing this forum software it would probably destroy the forums. however you could do this:

1. create a bookmark, doesn't matter what it is, but put it on your bookmark bar or somewhere easy to click
2. edit the bookmark, and replace the URL with this:

javascript:if (username = prompt('Enter the username:')) { alert('im gay'); window.location.href = 'http://forums.somethingawful.com/member.php?action=getinfo&username=' + username; }

3. now when you click that bookmark it will prompt for a username, type it in, click ok, and then suck my dick as thanks

Not that it was a 'saga' per se but my all time favorite Helldump call out thread was the DJ Cosmik one just for the Far Side-esque drawing of him spinning at a Burger King.

While the thread is findable the image is lost forever unless someone has it saved?
