BrickLink ID Card Hardstone (118) Location:  USA, Florida Member Since Contact Type Status May 10, 2013 Buyer

I recently wanted to look up a store that I had purchased from in the past, just for research purposes. I couldn't find the store in the alphabetical store list looking under the name I remember for it. I wasn't sure if the store was just closed at the moment or the Bricklinker had changed the store name. It had been a couple of years since I last purchased from this store, so it was possible that the store had been renamed. I decided to try looking up the Bricklinker who managed the store instead. When I went to the member list, I found to my dismay that there is no way to only display members who's BL username name begins with certain letters. The Bricklinker I was looking for uses a name that starts with the letter "P". After scrolling through over 400 pages, the list was still full of names that start with the letter "A" We need a better way to browse members. Please enable alphabetical searches with the ability to select specific letters to browse within.

[...] (URL) This should help, unless I am misunderstanding your suggestion (97 months ago, Jun 25, 2016, to Suggestions)

[...] When I sort by username it looks good in alphabetical order. Assuming you search for a US seller, P starts at page 500 (URL) (97 months ago, Jun 25, 2016, to Suggestions)
