Yes, but both of those methods now list threads in descending order from the user's own "post date" -- not in descending order from the most recent post in the thread by anyone (as was the prior methodology -- at least when searching under user name). So if you're trying to catch up on recent discussion in a thread in which you have participated, you no longer can easily tell whether there is a new post. Does that make sense -- and is there a fix to get it displayed "the old way"? Thanks.
