I need to know the easiest way to search the archives. I have a paper due on internet culture and need a way to find a thread I was part of last year as a reference. Anyone?
Might help if you told us what thread you need to search for.
I would, but the thread became a vicious joke on the board, cringe - scalar weapons? Plz don’t throw things at me.
Since you’re looking for a thread you participated in, you might just click on your name in this thread and select the “Find all posts by” link.
got it
For future reference, if you know or suspect that the thread you’re looking for was in Threadspotting (as that one was), then you can look for it in the Threadspotting archive (for recent ones, check the archive of recently-added material). Once you’re on the page, use your browser’s find feature (usually control-f, or command-f on a Mac) to find the one you’re looking for. This is on a separate server than the board, so it’s generally faster.
frixxxx, any questions about these boards belong in the ATMB forum. Next time please post them there.
Since this is asked and answered, I shall close it.
