Will the Search function be fixed soon?

I think you misunderstand. You don't pay for a new search. The search we have is a feature all users use regardless of their support status. The support, however is helping us out. The first priority is keeping the servers working so that people can actually access the site. And the money put into running this site isn't going into anyone's pockets, it's going into the improvement of the site.

So with the support of the users who've decided to contribute, we can get more done in less time. Which means that once the servers are ok we can move onto noncritical but important site functions such as search.

We don't need your money, no. Donating isn't something we require. The benefits of doing so do not give anyone an advantage over anyone else in viewing the forums. However, other users see that helping the site will help stuff like search get working quicker. So instead of complaining, they help us out.

We know search sucks. And we're doing our best to fix it. Don't jump the gun, though, under the assumption that we can fix everything now at your whim. Because we can't. The best I can say is that our efforts are going to the site and that we're working towards making things better for users. What else could we do? I don't exactly help out here so that users can have a bad experience. And I don't make "Sick jokes."

And I just clicked the link, it does work. Are you giving it more than 10 seconds to load the results below the search input?

I've been putting off making this thread for some time now so it's not like I've never game you all time to work on things with the forum. I do know you all have jobs, life, family ect away from the forum so I do unsterstand that tings can't be fixed when people here on the forum when people want it done.

I do wait for 10 seconds and more but nothing turns up just a basicly a page refresh happens. It only happens on this forum and even if I disable my firewall on my pc and my router same thing every time. (I never has this problem several months ago)

Hi Viper, search should be working, please list the URL of the search page, what browser you are using, what term you are searching for and if you can include a screenshot of the result page so we can debug and figure out whats going on.

? can someone clarify has it been disabled or is it available only to people who pay? We Elite/Core guru members do not get any special "extra's" we do not get a faster load time we do not get a better search feature what we do get is listed on the subscription page.

What happened to searching for a user's posts? It used to link to BoardTracker website that would find all posts by a user, now it links to a page saying you don't have permission. It works fine for me, but it could be because moderators need to use this function to dig up some dirt on someone >_< (like multiple posters).

yes what link do you get the scope=0 from, or what page did you search from It seems to be reverting to scope=0 for me on a new computer, not sure what's up with that. I'm guessing scope refers to how far back the search will look, and 0 probably only comes up with very recent threads or none at all.
