Members atrox Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 seems as though the database for the term search hasn't been updated in a couple months. I get stuff from september listed first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Guitar Heel Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Yep, I haven't found the search function to be very effective. Wait, wasn't there just a thread about this... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members FUBTAG Posted November 14, 2008 Author Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 I agree that it isn't the best.... hopefully something can be looked into.. BUT.... Still attempting to use it -- or reading the Guitar Links You can't live without thread is a good start for mayne members. I'm just saying... and not that I didn't make nOOb types of posts either... heck.. I still do!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members atrox Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 I use the search often to check when my name is mentioned. Not for vanity's sake, but because people ask me questions a lot in threads or want my comment and searching my name is the only way I can keep up on that. However, I have not been able to do this since the beginning of October. This issue has happened a few times before, but its usually fixed within a couple weeks... not this time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members atrox Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Well the world ain't perfect lolUnderstood, but the search function here does show up in order... when it works Can't I just whine for once? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members blingdogg Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Understood, but the search function here does show up in order... when it works Can't I just whine for once? Alright, just this once. I'll allow it this time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members stormin1155 Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Either I'm doing something terribly wrong (how could that possibly be?) or the search function doesn't work very well. I've searched for key words in the title of threads I've started, so I KNOW they are out there, and the search turned up nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've searched for key words in the title of threads I've started, so I KNOW they are out there, and the search turned up nothing. I know what you mean, and I think that there is something in the Search "Rules" about a minimum number of characters that has thrown me off a couple of times. I really should probably read-up on the specifics, but I'm lazy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Highway_61 Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 The search function is nearly worthless. I can type in keywords to find previous posts that I have lost track of, and I know that absolutely that I used these specific words, and I get no results. Not surprised, though: the site goes down a half- to a baker's dozen times per day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members headless Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 Search has to contain more than 3 letters. That's about the only rule This explains why I can never get a result when I search for "Sex". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members StratoSlacker Posted November 14, 2008 Members Share Posted November 14, 2008 i've found the search function to be useless lately. it won't find recent info that i know exists but i just can't locate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frets99 Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 If you type Search under Search do you end up in an infinite loop??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
