Searching Limitations

I brought this up a while ago and it was fixed, but now I've unfixed it.

When searching for individual posts of members, the maximum number of posts the forum retrieves is 10,000 posts. For most members, this is not an issue. However, I (having 10,000+ when including battle arena and off-topic) cannot find all of my vast and storied history.

My question: Is it possible to raise the number from 10,000?

I'll look into it... the limit may have been imposed as a time-saver, to prevent the site from getting timed out or using too much resources or something...

Maybe Ransac could filter by importance? No wait, that wouldn't find any results...... maybe by relevance?...... but to what? ........
Wow, this is a tough one...... does anyone else need have this problem?

Just an FYI that I upped the limit to 15,000 posts...
I think there's probably some member with even more posts than that grotesquely bloated number... :rolleyes:

Am I just imagining things, or is OS's post count at 6666?? Like, the number of the devil plus an extra?

Actually it's the number of the beast.....
and in 660,000 more posts, he will become the new Nostradamus.....

I suspect Spiderman would beat me to that number...
