Is there any way to search for a posting you did in a long thread without paging all the way through? I'm going blind looking.....

Use the search tool...

Since you know the thread title, search for that in the keyword section and search for your username in the author name section, changing the option to find post replies by user.

The reason google didn't work was because it was in team.  Team is not indexed in google.

Using the search tool, but I did have to change options to make it look for posts 24 hours old or older, to return results as posts, and to look in Team instead of GD. And I think keywords and author name may be case sensitive?
