Ubear -> Search Help (2/20/2010 17:10:58)

Hi all,

I'm trying to look for all posts made with the word "legacy" in, but apparently I'm doing something wrong.
Here's what I typed in the search thing, but I still had the error message.

Even tough I had just made a post with the word "legacy" in, it did not find any. What's up with that?

You need to narrow down the boards you're searching a little farther. If you only search AQGD with everything else the same you get some results, the problem is that you won't get anything back if there are too many results. The trick to the search engine is being specific enough to not get too many results without being so specific that nothing matches the search.

I've done as you said, specificly searched AQGD and added more words, but still, nothing.
Here's what I searched this time: http://img35.imageshack.us/img35/2623/searchfailtwo.jpg

EDIT
For clarification, here's the error message I'm getting: http://img24.imageshack.us/img24/8424/searchfailmessage.jpg

For "Search Only," instead of doing "Topics and Replies," try switching it to either "Topics" or "Replies" and see if it works.

You can also take a look at this thread for other tips too: The Search Function: Making it Work for You!

Hope this helps. :)

Wow you're everywhere Mecha Mario. XD
Thanks for your help, again. And thanks phoenix.

It looks like the thread got purged long ago, the only one left is in the GBI and that has nothing associated with it.

Lock please.

Thread locked as desired! ;) ~ Army ~
