My idea about finding All posts by a member would be to seperate the forums they are in like say they have 90 Posts 30 in 3 different forums. Rather than having the posts by the decending order they are seperated by the forum they are in so that way Finding posts would be simpler or just having different ways of looking at them would be fine as well.

You come up with all sorts of ideas but never indicate why exactly they'd be useful. What made you decide that we needed this feature?

I just thought It would make finding them simpler, but I guess I will stop doing this becuase I think I never really indicate why it is useful.

That's a good idea, if only for cutting down the list size. When someone makes a topic similar to an old one I usually search for the topic, find the date on my post (if I responded to the old one), then search through my posts, using the date for a marker.
An alternate solution to this would be providing a link within the post that allows you to have a URL that directly connects to said post.

Just go to the normal search form, enter your username in the username field, and check the "match exact username" box. Then you can use all the other advanced options like sorting, date ranges, specific categories/forums etc.
