Title: Can something be done about the search feature?
Post by: Ceathreamhnan on August 22, 2006, 19:55:05 PM
Its really pants! Does it only search thread titles? I went looking for the words sack race and it finds nothing, even though I can find them manually.

You cant say "why didnt you look for threads about this subject discussed before", because searching for search comes up with 0 topics found :P

You should make allowances; most people dont know but everytime someone searches for something the search term is emailed to Clockd and he has to trawl through all the posts and then make up a list of matches by hand with a box of crayolas.

Viewing recent posts does not constitute a seach, it is simply checking the inbox. :P

Nothing to do with clockd or the moderators, I dont bother with the search option anyway.

Sometimes I have monkey minions that help, they dont understand English so good. Thank you to all the people that chose not to shoot me.


Your search is important to us.
