Your saved stories show up on your profile page - but only for you. Nobody else sees that link.

  "... [would you be willing to send to me the first four pages (items 1 through 120) of your "Saved Stories"?] Nobody else sees that link. ..." How daft I didn't see that. Submissions are public ~ http://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=Vivtek http://news.ycombinator.com/submitted?id=Vivtek So RiderOfGiraffes will rely on willing users to submit them? Why not scrape names off existing comments in posts? and submissions?

    Because he doesn't want submissions or comments, he wants saved posts, which is really different for me, at least, and I assume for most of us. I've submitted 8 posts (only one of which went front page) of which naturally I didn't upvote any, because I can't. I've upvoted 135 posts ... which is way more than I would have thought, actually. And I've made roughly a thousand comments, which I would estimate would be on maybe 500 posts (because I don't normally get into extended discussion, so I'm guessing I average out to maybe 2 comments a post) - and the posts I comment on are not necessarily those I upvote, because I usually forget that you can upvote posts unless I really like a post.
