Neal-Archives AGAIN!!!!

Linton · 04-07-07, 07:10 PM

Drebbel ,your almost incomprehensible post astounds me.You have obviously not taken the time to look at other threads about this started by me.
The archives are next to useless unless you have a decent search facility.They are arranged at the moment by date of posting-even changing this to an alphabetical listing would be better than the current format.
I have just noticed that your post is an exact copy of another on a similar topic!Perhaps you should have read it before pasting it here.

Drebbel,I am referring to the large amount of material relating to Subcommand held in the archives.There are hundreds of pages of it.When a new player asks a question about Sc I believe that this forum is doing them a dis-service by telling them to wade through the archives looking for an answer without giving the smallest hint about where to look.
It is like having a library but no card index apart from a record of when the last book was borrowed!!
What is the cost of a "real good search engine"?
Has anybody ever asked the readers of this forum if anybody is capable of producing a search facility??
Answers on a post card please.

Drebbel ,if you look down the topic list you will see that I have already discussed this with Neal.

What is the Dutch for sorry?

Oh Linton, I am so sorry I replied to your questions in a non-perfect way. What was I thinking even trying to provide an answer. I am not sure if you are being insulting, funny, smart, or just normal. But it is good to hear you are already in contact with Neal on the issue. That way I can stay out.

Sarcasm is the lowest form of wit and an insincere apology is just insulting!!!

He was trying to help and instead of appreciating that you bitch and moan... That´s pretty annoying!

Linton · 04-08-07, 05:04 AM

Would you point me in the direction of the help as I cannot see it!I have asked a number of questions and neither of you have answered them.That is pretty annoying as well and we still have not produced an answer to this problem.
How much does a search facility cost???
