Re: Forum search sucks
The search function here is a total joke.
"2007 predictions" - won't even turn up that thread.
Gee, guess the hamster had to run to fast to turn that engine, eh?

Re: Forum search sucks
Yep. Lately I find it faster and better to search by actually clicking on page after page trying to find the right thread and then through screen after screen of that thread, even for posts a year or more ago, than using the current search tool.
Re: Forum search sucks
I've tried to fix it, and it seems beyond fixing. I'm done trying. Bark up another tree, please. I personally don't think it ever worked well since the forum switched to SMF.

Re: Forum search sucks
It would be a bigger deal if this forum was like others where you have people restarting new threads on the same subject constantly - but that doesn't seem to be a huge problem here.
Re: Forum search sucks
i am dissatisfied with the performance of the search function on this forum.

Re: Forum search sucks
When it was KC Skyscrapers the search function worked real good. after the forum moved to the new KCRag and moved to another host the search went South for the winter.

It works for me just fine. Maybe I don't understand the true problem.
