Find posts by user only shows half of my posts
I use it every day and it was fine until last night. Right now if I go to find my own posts, it only shows 993 posts, whereas I have ~1700. Most alarmingly, my posts since Oct 24 until last night are not showing up at all (I had several). However, if I go to the thread where I made those posts, they are still there. So it's just not showing up in the find posts by user feature.
Example: this post of mine on Nov 3.

I think the number shown has always been limited to five hundred or a thousand, but most of the time the actual number is a bit less. My guess is that the gap represents posts that were deleted or combined.

I noticed this yesterday as well when trying to follow up on a thread I posted in. I only see posts I made made prior to Oct. 31. Nothing since, even though I have posted since then and the posts are still showing in the applicable thread. They just don't show up in my posting history.

If you've posted in the interim, I've got to suspect some kind of database error.
