nope, don't have it. I can only see 500 posts. Is there any way to search farther back than that other than using the search function?

click on your username, and a little box will appear. Then click on "Find more posts by dieinafire".

quick links --> edit options --> Default Thread Age Cut Off

probably keeps the load on the servers down to search and show less posts

You can use filters and sorting to get at some of those older search results. For example, to search on old posts by a user you could select: Sort Results by -> Last Post Date -> Ascending. That will start with the oldest posts and work towards newer ones, rather than the default new to old ordering. Combine with filters for greater effectiveness.
