I agree with everything else that you wrote (especially about the inability to search by topics), but the absence of a user name search is less of a problem. I was a little surprised that you couldn't search by name[1] when I first arrived at PBase, but if you already know the name it's as simple as entering
- Code: Select all
http://www.pbase.com/User_Name/
in the address bar.
Of course, there's no provision for wildcard searches if you only know part of the name...
[1] Before anyone mentions it, yes, there
is the old user list page (
http://www.pbase.com/users). No, it
hasn't been updated for over a year which is probably why you won't find a direct link to it on the site any more. And no, it wasn't particularly useful anyway after it reached the point where you needed to scroll through dozens of pages of listings for each letter of the alphabet.
