I'm positive now... The search feature is definitly
not returning the results it should be.
Has anyone else noticed really poor search results?

I'm pretty sure I'm doing it the same as always, but
now I'm lucky if I get more than one result...

Last one, I typed in "partner" with my name as author
and I got 1 result from ages ago, but I'm positive I
have used that word heaps of times...

The search "feature" has always been broken here. This is not news. The only way it will be fixed is is they update this old and busted forum software.

Yes. The search function is not the most gleaming jewel in the Collarme crown.

I sometimes find things via Google's advanced search, entering "collarchat.com" in the "site or domain" blank.

It works. Kinda. Sorta. Not very well.

I used to be a lot better at the search feature. Part of the problem is that common words are very difficult to find within the maximum allotment of returns.

Please do keep something in mind. You may have used the word "partner" on more than one occasion, but if the post was removed by the Mods, it will not show in your search results.

I hadn't noticed. I just did a search for a topic of interest to me that I know has been covered extensively in the past. It took a couple of tries, using variations of keywords, to find the exact information I was looking for, but I succeeded.
