Hover over Search, 'right-click' and then 'Open'.
Doing this once fixes the problem (I believe per forum session you're in)

Perhaps you need a bigger server. I actually like this site but am a bit put off by the you should have searched before you posted notes when it's always down.

They just upgraded the server to a really fast one. (I have no idea what kind) However it has been doing great actually. I did read somewhere from one of the Admins (I think kzap) that they are looking into adding another.

I think the magic number for too many people online is just over 2000.
If there are less than 2000 ppl the search works fine.

Is there any way to alter the default text that comes up in the goolge search box.

Your-Search-Text-Here inurl:/forum
to Your-Search-Text-Here http://www.guildwarsguru.com/forum/

Took me a while to figure you you had to swap inurl to the real url.

That has got to be one of the brattiest posts I have ever seen.

Show some manners, Deathskrye.
It isn't as if you pay the server fees.
This is a voluntarily run free forum, show some tact when you have problems with it.

Search is a very important feature though, and it's not that great to be unable to search.

Sometimes you want to know something, but can't search, so you start a new topic instead of searching. After that people start screaming that you should've used search..

I just found the OP’s method of voicing the concern over the search issue unnecessarily rude.
Meh, just my 2¢…I really don’t want to start a whizzing contest.
So, I’ll just walk away slowly and hope not to have insulted anybody to badly.

I'd at least like to be able to search for my own posts so I can track threads easier.

However, I suppose subscribing to the threads is a workaround.
