Instead of just an alphabetical list of names, an actual search facility…

e.g. for captainblade viewtopic.php?f=35&t=40751

It's always been there (although not quite sure how Chris got to that link...)

Simply click on Members at the bottom of any page and then click on "Find a member" at the top of the table (to the left of All A B C D E F ....)

I did think that was the case, and was being slightly tongue in cheek.
I’m not up to speed with emoticons. perhaps a blush?
Still, praise where it’s warranted. As here.

Bitteschön. :) Remembered that when composing private messages there is a Find a member link. I just stole that link for the post above. C.

I thought you thought so too ;) but my main purpose was to highlight the (easy!) way to do it so that folks didn't have to remember or bookmark this page or any link ...

The main member list is sorted in ascending sequence of when they signed up to TLF. Or at least the list I see by default is.

You can instead sort members alphabetically by then clicking on "Username".

By clicking on a letter, I then get all members whose name starts with that letter, in reverse alphabetic sequence. No idea why.
