If I do a self search it could took a month of scrolling to get to a post I did in 2008, is there a way to just see all my original posts and not all the responses as well?
It depends — are you logged on?

If you know the subject and your own screen name try something like this in google to narrow it down.

I know what you mean, EB - I have wanted to see posts I made several years ago, but the only way I know is to go to search, type in your username, and then keyword, and click ‘user’ (not title), and then go through all of them. Keep going back, and back and back and back. I have spent literally hours doing this.
I have always wished we could type in a date or month or year, and get our posts, but so far - no such luck.

3. Hit Ctrl+F. This brings up a search box. Type a word or phrase you used in the message you’re trying to find.
4. The rest should be self explanatory. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, try the “Next Page” link at the bottom. You’ll have to gdo Ctrl+F again.

When I did it it took me back to posts I made in 2001
Just try subbing different numbers other than 500000
(smaller = farther back...but if you go to far then nothing)
I have made a lot of posts...you might need larger numbers. This will take you back to 2001 :-)
