  • new FORUMS SEARCH SYSTEM

    We've implemented a new search system for the forums



    Searches should now be faster and more accurate.

    Feedback is needed!

      Seems much faster.
      Incidently, there are 246 threads that mention the word "porn". Make that 247 now, I guess.
      7010 that mention "civ3".

      I see there is still the 4-letter minimum though. Dammit.

          LOVING IT!

          Search is fast and returns results for things it didn't before. Will make trawling through strategy forums so much easier.

          I notice it doesn't search through the private forums one has access to, but this is still a major improvement as it is

            i should note that posting and editing will also be faster as the big searchindex tables are not used any longer

                  Is no one going to make a crude joke? I'd do it, but I have my erudite repuation to think of.

                  Nice feature btw.

                      Well editing takes still longer then just posting but actual this is no wonder, as adding at the end is faster then searching and modifying something.

                      But at least it now works to find really old posts.

                        WOW! That was fast. I'll test editing too.

                        EDIT: Hopefully this edit will be fast.

                          It searches the Archives. YAY!

                            It doesn't search the archives fully, or at least not all of them.

                            But I'm not complaining, this is a major improvement The search feature used to be the part of Apolyton I used the most, but recently I've barely used it at all anymore due to it's very limited usefullness. Maybe that will now change again

                              This surely is good news. Looks very plain and working. Thanks, Markos!
