Can only go back 1000 caches from someone's geoprofile?

[+BenamBenam3]

I was just clicking on someone's geoprofile from the website to look at some caches we did a few years ago. I noticed I can only go back 1000 caches? Whether it's "all geocaches" or any particular cache type, I can only go back 1000 caches.  I see a right chevron > but it's not active.

Another reason I would want to do this is because people will tell me of a cache they did in a certain year and location, and if I look at their finds, I can identify it. 

 

When did this happen, and why? Is there any way around it besides looking at each individual cache type on a geoprofile, and hoping they don't number 1000?

Thankfully, they never decommissioned the (very) old code, which still works, and even packs more info onto the screen.  Many of us, I think, would be upset if the old links suddenly stopped working.

 

Use this format, substituting the geo-name as appropriate:

If you have premium on Project-gc, there are few tools to compare caches with other cachers (map based and date based).

It happened when they switched to using the new search engine for returning all lists of caches (about a year ago, I think). One workaround, if you know roughly when they found that cache, is to go into the filters and set a Find Date range to narrow it down to under 1000 caches:
