Come on now, you've got a fat kid waving at you in the top right when you log in, a trending deals widget...and you're going to be high maintenance and complain about missing obvious functionality? That's sooo 2013.daikman wrote: ↑It's insanity. I despise this site often for its 3rd world search function. It's truly a head shaker how they can be so freaking cheap that they're unable to program it properly.
It has driven me to the point that when I went to look for a thread, I type into chrome: "RFD... (thread content)" - It's absurd.
... How is Google better at finding specific content, then the search function of a site that ONLY stores and searches it's own data??
I DUNNNN UNDERSTAND.

Well... searching is what Google does best. It's like saying, "How is my accountant better at doing my taxes and getting me a bigger return than me? I ONLY have to figure out my own taxes and nobody else??"daikman wrote: ↑It's insanity. I despise this site often for its 3rd world search function.

This is a flood control feature that most forums have because searches can be a resource hog. Not a problem on smaller forums but on large ones such as RFD, if hundreds of people are constantly performing searches, it can slow the site down for everyone. Some sites even make you wait 30-60 seconds in-between which would be even more annoying.bennyboy84 wrote: ↑And also ; can you remove the "wait for 15 seconds before searching again" nonsense? If I do a typo and get no results back it's even more frustrating to have to wait for an awkward 12-13 seconds before searching again. The things I could have done with all those 10-15 seconds!
