When you look on the Search Forums screen, you can search for posts by a member in a forum or sub-forum, but not down to individual thread level. And when you click on Find More Posts By... above their avatar, you can only see all their posts. But if you go to Search This Thread, just above the first post on the page, and then click Advanced Search, you'll be taken to a screen with the option Search By User Name, that will return results from just the current thread.

a different way is to call the forum page where the thread is located and then click the link behind "replies". you also find this link within your subscriptions (if you're subscribed to that thread, sure). it opens a small window which lists the amount of posts to a thread, grouped by member name (so the one with the most posts to this thread is on top of this lists). In that window, simply click on the amount of posts of the user you like to follow.
