I’m not seeing a way to search in these forums. Am I just missing it?

Wow, literally as soon as I posted this the little icons popped up. Go figure. /shrug

Players can be found if you search for their exact names and they were @ tagged in a post. That post will show up, you enter the post and enter their name 🙂
