finding old posts

[jdefoe]

Where can I find old posts such as Ed Miller's when he was trying to learn? Also, did Daniel Negreanu used to post on 2p2? if he did does anyone know his username?

thanks

For Google, include "site:www.twoplustwo.com" in your search terms. To help narrow things down, try adding "Ed Miller" and "Reged: 09/02/02". This gives these search results.

I think Daniel's twoplustwo username is, surprisingly enough, Daniel Negreanu.

Edit: Sorry about the bad links-- I can't seem to fix them. Try copying them into your browser.

Apparently you can type quotes in the links as " (their standard encoding for URLs), but then apparently UBB.threads 6.5.2 remakes them into quotes thus hosing its own links!

Ignore this if you're not a tech geek. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img] But one of us hould probably submit a bug report if this isn't already fixed in UBB.

Thank you!

I'm working on my tech geek skills, so I guess I'll have to figure out what this means....

oh wow.... it replaced the URL-encoded quotes.

The URL encoding for quotes is percent-22. That means that, for example, if you go to Wikipedia and type in
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ % 22 minus the spaces, it will get interpreted as " (and in the case of wikipedia, redirect you to quotation mark).

I'm too lazy to search the UBB bug database to see if this has been reported.
