Is there a way to see the user's join date w/o looking at their profile?
The old format showed the join date below the avatar (or in that area). This was handy especially in the buy and sale venue. Post counts are somewhat meaningless as someone can ramp up that number fairly easily. With name changes, it is hard to track who everyone is and to save the trouble of looking at the user profile to see how long they have been around, it would be nice to see that date on the post itself in case the user name is not recognized easily. I tend to be a lot more comfortable buying from longer established members.
