Search for User?!

[Seeker 0]

Could we have a search for users feature?

i would find this very usefull. i recently got a PM from somone and i dunno from which hub that PM came, so this would allow me to search for the user.

i dont think this would hinder hub performance in any way. as it should just search users that are listed on the hubs anyway. it would just be allot easier then manually searching every hub.

(something like an internal text search, no queries to the hub whatsoever)

Well, we're not able to add the the hub that the user is from in the PM window. Searching for a user on all hubs seems a hard task.

That i might be able to add but won't since it would only eat resources...

Oh. I'm sure BM said it was impossible with the current protocol.

Maybe with the protocol, but it could be done by saving the info of the user's hub when he is still online and then when he goes offline display that saved info, but this is plain ugly, and uses unneeded resourcess so i'm not doing it this way...

We did, but it's because of the lack of the feature we're talking about that you have your problem. ^_^
