Re: Search Limitation
I'm guessing this is done to cut down on bandwidth costs.

Personally I only ever search when looking for a thread I've already read.

Re: Search Limitation
Searching the archives of bajillion posts isn't cheap in terms of computing power, especially running multiple searches at the same time. I suspect this is why they added the recent 6 month time frame limitation and why this new limitation has been added.
But I agree, it sucks.

[/ QUOTE ] I do it. I also do a lot of searching in the strategy forums. It will really suck if we can't search in those forums. And the impact on the books forum will be insane.
