Search threads function nerfed or bugged? Z_Dash Sep 15th, 09, 01:37 PM #1 (permalink)
The current search thread function seems to be limited.
I cannot search for shorter lingo like "i7" or "x2"
Text like "CLI-40" cannot be properly searched.

Also "LCD" does not yield proper results with many thread with LCD text are being left out.
Same for "hdd"

Is this implementation or bug?

Hmm...."LCD" is 3 char.....but the returns are not accurate if you browse down the threads.

I don't quite get your meaning which LCD keywords return are not accurate?

A few threads now shown despite having keyword "LCD" with no concatenation. I was trying to search back a thread i done deal before to give feedback but had to manually dig down.

you could also use advanced search which allow you to filter by your nickname and "LCD" to give the best result

Just to highlight the issue again......i just posted my stuff up on sales.
Asus P5E (X38) Workstation Pro + Intel Q6600 G0 + 2x 2gb Crucial ballistix Tracers

Tried searching 'Q6600' keyword which does not comes out any results despite my title and content had many repeats of this keyword.

VRForums - IT & Singapore Lifestyle Community

Think this is one problem hanging around.....i can't find pengzhi Q6600 WTB thread with the search too.

Wa........most people like me will do a quick search with keyword to look for stuff. Browsing thru the whole thread will take much effort.

Hope admins can look into this issue.

Recently seems much bugs with forums start to surface after the previous index rebuild.
