i think we need a forum search engine. it would help out a lot. instead of posting a question or comment that has already been addressed. we can just search for the topic or issue.
(Funnily btw and sure enough, this suggestion itself seems to be floating up from time to time recently. Which I guess only goes to underline the issue )
Here is a link to a search engine i use for the forums...

an integrated search engine would sure and an ease to the mean.
I've tried searching the forums here using an advanced Google search (pretty much the same thing, I reckon), but the results were meager to say the least.
Well PJ, that's actually a very very good idea, the best I heard. Why didn't it fell on my mind?
[Google's] inability to sort results chronologically is a great drawback, in any event.
This.
I made a post about submitting games made in Unity a while back, but forgot to check for a response.
Now I can't find where that post went.

Try using that link above, or simply a Google advanced search. Using your username + relevant keywords you can think of (+ this forum only if necessary, using the search code site//armorgames.com/community ), with some luck you'll find what you seek.
But it is a missing feature yes, one will just lose track of some less active/pressing threads, of one's own or of others.

[quote=MacII]I've finally turned my attention to the DuckDuckGo search engine ... it does feature this ability, to sort results chronologically.[/quote]
Actually looks like the code for it is simply sort:date. Have I been missing this for the past twenty years or so? Doh.
I'm not sure of the syntax yet, I find suggestions to use sort=date instead; nor of how it is to reverse date order. Any comments welcome, and other than that I guess I'll just be playing along with it as I go along. Results probably of limited value on a web search anyway, for the reasons mentioned.
