OT - search function

CrashDive · 12-28-05, 09:48 PM

Hi all, is it just me or is the search function broken?

No matter what options I use, I can't seem to get any results before December.

The big boss man had to delete the archive I believe.

Crud!

I was wondering what was wrong.

Yeah, there is a lot of stuff I need to search for!

Yep, the need to delet the keyword lists every now and then clearly makes the search function useless.

One even starts thinking if because of that posts could not be deletred automatically much sooner.

But of course I would prefer a decent search option.

There are mods out there that let you rebuil the search index after forums have been pruned. Maybe a good thing when someone informs SubSim about that, it could be the olution Neal needs. I have no experience with those mods, but did hear about them. Maybe one of you can tell Neal the pros and cons of such a mod ?
