Yes, but the reason I did it this way rather than leave it the way Dream does it, is because Dream's version works fine on smaller forums with only a few thousand members on it. But when you get into the tens of thousands of users and they all have at least one PM, then what happens with Dream's version, is that it starts taking thirty plus seconds for the query to complete as Dream's version does not have any form of pagination, thus rendering this hack unusable (I have actually replicated this issue on a Big Board).
That is why it is the way it is in this version.
I may look into doing it via username (no promises), but it would definitely need to have pagination incorporated to prevent making the hack useless. It would be in addition to to via PM totals, not instead of them. But like I said, no promises.
