set your posts to 100 per page, then go to the google search top right and type
'defender chronicles' take the first result and then try and find that post on that page.

Now do it with 50 posts per page.

50 posts per page is superior because it is search compatible.

 

[manipulate]

This man does not shy away from confronting the great questions of our time, I'll say that.

 

[Unknown Soldier]

That's a flaw in the built-in Google post search, since Google isn't "logged in" as a user.

100 posts per page is the ONE TRUE NUMBER OF POSTS PER PAGE. Unbelievers will be burned at the stake!

 

[AngelSoldier]

Figured this out the hard way, but instead with other topics.

 

[iNvid02]

i just wanna be able to search my own posts

 

[WrenchNinja]

No I will never agree to this. I am never going back to such an inferior number.

 

[toastyToast]

No. I have better things to do than load new pages every 30 seconds.

 

[Timedog]

No. I have better things to do than load new pages every 30 seconds.

download a browser plugin for endless page browsing than, sweetcheeks.

50 > 100

 

[wolfmat]

50 rocks y'all. More pages ~> more impressive.

 

[TheSeks]

Or he can turn on 100 posts per page and not deal with searching for posts considering the search options suck.

(100 > 50)

 

[Roland Deschain]

The one true way = 100.

 

[Callo Merlose]

hah, cute. Newbies.

I love you, catfish, but 100 is always superior.

 

[rObit]

Slow internet = 50 posts per page.

Fast internet = 100 posts per page.

Done.

 

[SmokyDave]

This is you.

You're a bad machine. The factory will straighten you out.

 

[Zizbuka]

So you don't have <CTRL> and F keys in the land of giants and unicorns?

 

[def sim]

I used to rock 50 but I've been giving 100ppp a try. What I've learned is that it doesn't matter at all.

 

[Timedog]

Or he can turn on 100 posts per page and not deal with searching for posts considering the search options suck.

(100 > 50)

Infinite + search > 100 - search

It's simple math.

 

[NullPointer]

Used to have GAF+ and 100 posts per page.

Then I got an ipad.

50 posts per page means its more likely to load all of the images (although I still have to avoid some of the very image rich threads), and if the page is reloaded I have less distance to scroll to where I was on the page.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

Unless they changed their mind, real search is eventually coming back.

I'm not downgrading post count just because they had to implement google search for a spell.

 

[Mr_Zombie]

The one true way = 100.

Unless it is a "High-Res PC Screenshot Thread" D:
Seriously, that thread made my browser crash several times now.

 

[CRS]

50 posts per page is superior because it is search compatible.

Divide the page number you get in the url by half. Done.

 

[Roi]

Everything else > this disussion

 

[British Monsoon]

All this means is that 100ppp should be forum default. Death to 50pppp (the extra 'p' stands for peasants ).

 

[LOZLINK]

lol inferior 50 ppp users. Bow down to your overlords.

 

[Vagabundo]

I like my post per pages uncut, thank you very much.

 

[Agnostic]

I use 50 and have fast internet. Bring it!

 

[def sim]

Like, if someone were to magically change my ppp setting to 50, I would not notice at all.

 

[UnluckyKate]

i just wanna be able to search my own posts

The User Highlights Chrome script is made for you

 

[scar tissue]

WRONG
100 posts is clearly superior, and i will fight to the death anyone who says differently
/anti-skub

 

[shanshan310]

50 rocks y'all. More pages ~> more impressive.

exactly.

also 50 posts is gaf intended If you change it your just messin' with the way it should be.

 

[Dice]

Yeah, I switched to 50 because of the search thing.

 

[WrenchNinja]

exactly.

50 posts per page is for non-member lurkers. You a non-member!?!

 

[Dreams-Visions]

ITT: GAF Silver members try to tell us that our GAF Gold subscription perks aren't really perks.

fail.

 

[Cheerilee]

If I was serious about GAF I might consider changing it to 100ppp, but then I'd be admitting to myself that I'm serious about GAF.

 

[fanboi]

Asked the same question a time ago...

Got locked in 3 min

 

[NullPointer]

50 > 500 > 100

That is: 50 posts per page means more page loads means more ad impressions means more rupies for GAF means more upgraded hardware means fewer 500 errors.

Stop being so fucking selfish. ;P

 

[Jamesfrom818]

You silly Gold members. GAF Black has only one page.

 

[StuBurns]

Although it's true that thing in the OP happens, I don't personally ever feel the need to google any particular post, and if I did I'd work around it considering it'd be a rare event. 50 post per page is for peasants.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

50 > 500 > 100

That is: 50 posts per page means more page loads means more ad impressions means more rupies for GAF means more upgraded hardware means fewer 500 errors.

Stop being so fucking selfish.

Using an allowed feature is being selfish? I thought using ad-block was.

By your logic 1>50>100.

They upgraded their servers and there hasn't been 500 errors or down time during big events for a long time.

 

[Bruiserk]

i just wanna be able to search my own posts

Agreed. I'm fine with not being able to view others, but not my own? That's ridiculous.

 

[midonnay]

that is what google cache is for

 

[NullPointer]

Using an allowed feature is being selfish? I thought using ad-block was.

My sarcasm is too subtle. Its late (early) for me. Time for dreams.

By your logic 1>50>100.

You speak of the mythical unipage? How do you know of this?

 

[Gen X]

If it's set to 50 then technically you're loading more info each page since it has to load twice as many adverts.

 

[Salazar]

50 per page.

I'm a frugal soul.

 

[C.Dark.DN]

My sarcasm is too subtle. Its late (early) for me. Time for dreams.

I don't see any sarcasm in that post even after your claim.

They WOULD benefit from the ads more if everyone was 50. It just can't be selfish since it's condoned.

 

[The Faceless Master]

Divide the page number you get in the url by half. Done.

this.

 

[Ashes]

Wait, so if google works on fifty page format, then why not look for the right page using th page number. Would it not be double or half the number? <<<< shows how often I search for stuff.... I only ever search for stories that may already be old or duplicated....

 

[Amir0x]

I'll be honest that as a mod I frequently prefer 50 posts per page because it's far easier to patrol a topic in bite sized chunks than in massive page form, with the added load speed it's the obvious choice for me right now.

If I wasn't a mod I'd do 100 posts per page

 

[Deleted member 1235]

Infinite + search > 100 - search

It's simple math.

I've always liked you timedog, where might I find such a utility for endless browsing?

lol page 381 what now professor?!

 

[StuBurns]

AutoPager gives you infinite posts per page.
