+4 whats up with that?
you enter something into the search that is a common tag like 17.5 brushless.... it gives you todays posts and then goes all the way to 2001!!!!

Brushless stuff wasn't around (for the most part) in 2001!!!!!!

perhaps we should ask the admin to change this thread's title.

the question mark? should be replaced with an exclamation point!

(i just don't see how this is still a question.. )

Another thing I find with the search is that it IS CaSe sensitive

I did a search for lipo, came up with 4 threads, then a search with Lipo came up with 1 thread

Do a search for "Associated B4", and you get 0 results. Here, since the mods dont' seem to believe us, I copy and pasted the results:

Quote:
Sorry - no matches. Please try some different terms.
The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search : Associated, B4

Honestly...the search function has been fouled up for two months now. This isn't acceptable.

I became a paid member back when paid memberships became available because RC Tech was an excellent resource when you could reliably search for the information needed or items you wished to buy. Now it's become pretty much useless...which is unfortunate. I already find that I'm on the site a mere fraction of what I was (read: fewer ad views...something that SHOULD concern the revenue side of IB) and tapering off fast. At this rate I'm thinking it's no longer worth me supporting the site with my membership dollars when I'm, in all honesty now, getting nothing in return.

HELP ME OBI WAN!! YOU'RE OUR ONLY HOPE.

ARGH!!!!

The searches in B/S/T worked PERFECTLY (as far as I could tell) night before last and last night...now they're back to displaying one current result, two results from a month ago, and a TON of pre-2004 results. The search I tried was "13.5", last night it returned a few PAGES of hits from the past month, just as one would suspect.

Yeah, but I had been filled with such hope...

The sense of elation I felt upon discovering "search" was working Monday night can only be described as Christmas, birthday, and finding one of Wonka's golden tickets all at once.

Now with it gone again it's like dnf'ing my last chance quallie, my dog dying and finding my wife in bed with my best friend all at once

Come on Mods. Let us know SOMETHING. Say you are working on it, you think we're full of crap or SOMETHING. Just searched Jammin and TC5. Jammin gave me 5 hits this year and the rest way older. TC5 gave me 3 hits TOTAL!!
