I just noticed it as well. I got 141 results on a single page, rather than broken into two pages at 100.

Yesterday.

You can control the number of posts you see per page and default settings for how far back the system goes to show you posts from the User Control Panel.

UserCP / Edit Options

Scroll down to “Number of posts to show per page” Edit as you like.

Right under that is “Default Age Thread Cutoff” Also edit as you like. The system default is to show all threads from the last two days.

Hit the Save Changes button on the bottom and you’re good to go.

Hope this is useful.
