I came up with this idea as I was looking for a certain thread. As I was searching through different sections of the community (and multiple pages) I wondered if there was a way I could search for the thread name. Seeing that there is not a place to do this (that I know about), I was wondering if we could have a search tool for the Community, hence the name of this thread. Up at the top of the page, there is a search bar (or whatever name suits you) that you can use to look for games. Would it be possible for there to be an option for searching in the Community?

All the user would have to do is click the down arrow next to the search bar and there would be two options: "Games" and "Community." To search in the Community, you type in words that are in the title of the thread.

Any comments? Suggestions?

This has been suggested multiple times. There used to be a community search, but it was taken down. Not sure why, I forgot.

WOW. Everything you just said is exact. There was a community search LONG TIME AGO but the search was vague. You can still use the search secretly.

I think you were a little late. You can still use it though?

Yea you can use it. Just type in what you want to search inbetween 'search' and 'community'. (use the + sign for multiple word). The searh is organized by date.

The reason why nobody knows it was removed is because nobody was told in any announcement or its not in any sticky.

The search link is something I've never seen before! That really is pretty neat... if anything, that should be used as a replacement 'til we get a new one!

Shadow, I think that was rather off topic.

Anyway....

Plokkey, they should make you a guy for digging out old and new things. Seriously, you're like an online inventor! XD
