    How the hell do I just find posts, original posts, not reblogs, by a certain user, that aren't tagged with their own name?

    I think in the top right corner, it says Source: " " and if you click that, you can find the original. Beyond that, I have no idea. /tumblrnewb.

    This isn't possible unless you're on their blog, they have infinite scrolling, and they have some kind of notification of a reblog (usually a source link).

    Then it's possible using a script.

    Depends on who reblogged it. Some themes have bits that say "source" or "reblogged from" and by clicking that you'll go to the original post on the user's blog.

    What's the post? Odds are that someone who reblogged it has a theme with that button.

    Depending on whether their account has been deactivated or not, they should have their username at the bottom left/right (I forget olol) as a "source" (or a source button).

    To all: I think he wants to view all of a particular user's original posts and filter out their reblogs.

    Tumblr is a perpetual reblog. There are no original posts.

    kiiromoeru:
    I
    I
    I
    I
    I

    if I were to click on the url kiiromoeru, I'd go to the original post

    Pfft /hahahahaha

    The only thing I use tumblr for is a cheap laugh now and then. There are some interesting comics but that's about it.

    EDIT: Go ahead and click the link in my signature. It has like 1 or 2 posts. I don't tumbl.

    If you download XKit, there's an add-on that allows you to see only the original posts people make on your Dashboard. Don't think it extends to their actual blog, though.
