Search Disabled
Inde
FYI, searching has been disabled for a time. It's a resource hog and until we have the new server I'm sure it will be going up and down depending on the time. And yes yes... because I know someone will mention it. The mods know about this and will be lenient on posts "up to a point".

I've found out just now...
So is the search button the reason the site has been going crazy lately?
Everyone encourages it and tells everyone repeatedly to use this tool, yet it leads to the demise of the site itself...
Sounds like irony.
"USE THE SEARCH BUTTON
SEE THAT BUTTON AT THE TOP OF THE FORUM?
DON"T MAKE REPETITIVE THREADS"
days are over for now until we get a new server.
It's pretty hard to sift through all the stuff and find what you are looking for.
As for the new server coming in; I hope it works. I really hope that the site will be faster than ever before. It will truly be the 1337 site till then. I wish you luck with the server installation Inde. Make this work .

Spewing, makes it extremely difficult to find your own posts to bump them...unless you like to look through 10 pages of threads.
Sir Decoy
Awww... I refreshed the page... and it's like "You cannot access this page." And I was like WTF! Thanks for clearing that up.

this is really bad for me, as i always used that to track whatever auctions i was in, threads i wanted to keep up on, etc...
chris_nin00
Actually, there is an easier way to keep track of your threads instead of searching for them .
At the top of every thread is the thread options button. Click it, then select subscribe thread.
You can check your subscribed threads in your control panel. It's very useful .
Hope that helps.

May your future auctions be subscribed auctions .

Well I guess I'm getting a few days off then
I'm guessing it will be down during this weekend to cope with the excessive load on the servers, but it should be back shortly.

search is now enabled up to a certain point, then when load is too high it gets turned off and you have to use Google

Quick as always, nice work.
Makes me wonder what kind of work is going to have to be done once that dedicated server gets going.

Anarki
Well this is just great. Now I have to dig thru dozens of pages to look and bump up my theard in Sell subsection.
Heck, I'll just make a new one, don't delete it.

Please turn it off again. The forums, and especially the auction site, are virtually unusable. I can find something manually faster than with the search. At least waiting for it allows me to go make some lunch. But coming to the inevitable page timeout message is frustrating.

So when is this new server actually going online and when will we get our missing Avatars back. I asked about the Avatars in two threads here and haven't heard anything back yet. I am trying to be patient!
Meneldil
I shall be patient then.
kzap
the new server is up and running and blazing fast, its HOT
k well anyway we're prepping it and making sure everything works before we switch it over k

Got that right! I just spent over 30 minutes looking for a post I had made with a pic of my necro weaons, and couldnt find it. Google search sucks! If I was able to do "Find all posts by ....." in User Control Panel, no problem, Id have it already. Im subscribing to ALOT of forum topics now, as all the searching is taking away time I could be playing(like if I see something interesting or take a neat screenshot, and want to post it in a forum Ive already been in, then return to game). I wonder if "the Forum Gods" actually care, or is all the talk about a new server Ive heard, JUST talk?
capblueberry
I miss it, some threads i liked i had to use it to find em and thats the only way i knew how to get to it
Inde
My mods and staff give up our time playing to manage these forums. I'm truly sorry that you had to devote a couple of extra minutes to find a topic you had posted in but I think the situation is being dramatized.
Yes the new server is here, yes my staff has been testing it out (and everyone of them could respond here saying they have been on the new server and site).

Gorebrex, I'm not going to be as nice as Inde about it, that's just downright rude and crass of you to say. If you think we'd lie about our attempts to improve the site, then you're grossly mistaken. I know personally that Inde and kzap do everything in their power to help the site run better and more efficiently each day, and I've seen what's been going on behind the scenes during this process.
Don't make such blind accusations if you don't know what's going on. Perhaps you'd like to order and set us up a server in 2 days? 12 hours? You know, thinking realistically dramatically helps the situation. Accusing us of lying due to an inconvienience on your part is unnecessary.

If you think I was accusing anyone of lying, youre mistaken. I merely meant that it was being discussed, but nothing being done, NOT that it wasnt going to be done. Badly phrased on my part, and I apologize for offending anyone, but that was NOT my intent. I couldnt obtain/setup a server anyway, without knowing minimum current requirements, and expected growth of bandwidth needs, ect. Would help if I could.
Edit: Cant believe I forgot to thank you guys for the nice surprise of having search functional. Its MUCH easier to find posts no(Ill be subscribing to search page in case search server goes down or something.

Just FYI you most probably know, search is still borked it giving memory allocation errors. I will edit this post when I try to search again.
EDIT: borked when searching through Ventari's Sell not borked when searching smalling sections of the forum. Resource hog it seems.
Error Message Follows: Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 35 bytes) in /home/guildwarsguru.com/public_html/forum/search.php on line 1052
