No, it's called stalking!!!!

On a serious note, I don't think it's possible on forum boards. It's not Twitter.

For example:

The LQ search has an option for userid - I use it regularly, but only (in my case) when I know that person has posted something I want to refer to (usually).

yep that'll do the trick. there's a secret club of people here at lq where all the members do this to H_TeXMeX_H and then take turns in picking at everything he says. there agender is to try to get into his head and eventually control his thoughts. :)

The easy way, though probably not quite what you are after is to check the users posts (you can click on the user name, then select 'Find More Posts by XXXXXXX').
