No, it's called stalking!!!!

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

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).

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').
