Theres even a search tool for games, thats good. But the forum seriously needs a search tool. Mostly to find specific guides/walkthroughs for old games.
I see the search thing has a dropbox already, which only has "games" though, so if a search tool for the forum was already planned and isnt just ready yet, i apologise.
Part of the problem as Agent said was that it slowed the site down more so than now, which is still slow as hell. But it was also cause the search was really broad and not well done, so you would be given irrelevant answers.
I also would like some sort of thread search. Because I do know the name of the threads I reply to but I always forget where they were. Now it is hard to find the thread I replied to, to see if somebody replied back to me.
It is just as easy to use google. That way it doesn't slow the site down and you can get other similar things an an added bonus. We don;t need a search tool when we have the best oine just round the corner.
