I mean, I know its stupid, but until the search button comes back if it does, I'll bump this.

I never knew people relied this much on the search button. I barley ever use it.
dargereldren:
But what if you wanted to find posts in a specific board and/or by a specific user?
Google is useless for that.
And many issues I had with searching for stuff on here through Google is that Google also stores ;wap2 and https:// (which no longer works) pages, which I find annoying.

Well, we're going to have to stick with what we have for now, atleast we still have some form of searching.

ideally, for a board, you would add "board=1.0" to the search. that example is for General Discussion, but it would be different for all the boards. but that doesn't seem to work
as for the user, just add their username to the search (probably would be best to use quotes in the search, for that). this will work almost all of the time, but it will also include any times that someone else said the name
