[ QUOTE ] I'm guessing this is done to cut down on CPU/db load. [/ QUOTE ] [/ QUOTE ] I'm telling you, you're right. These changes have almost no impact on bandwidth. They will have a major (positive) impact upon CPU/DB load. |

Re: Search Limitation
I've done searches to point people to existing threads on their topic. This is not to be a douche. But the search is poor, and it is easier to find something that you have seen before than find threads related to something you want to know.
The search function is weak as is. Limiting users to one search every X makes it practically unusable. |

Re: Search Limitation
Every time you click on someone's username and take a look at their posts, that counts as a search too.

Re: Search Limitation
I think that's too optimistic -- they took down the entire forum while they upgraded. I don't think this would be a temporary measure for the upgrade. Here's my optimistic view:
Maybe the new search limitation is a default setting in the upgraded software, and if we petition the forum-master(s) they will change it back to the way it used to be. [img]/images/graemlins/grin.gif[/img] |

This is one of the topics I emailed Chuck about when I discovered this limitation in the archives forum (thats why it was the first thing I checked when I saw we had an upgrade). Since Chuck knew about this for weeks, it must have been a conscious decision to do this. [img]/images/graemlins/frown.gif[/img] |

Re: Search Limitation
ok. I found out, this search limitation can definitely be reset in the software to allow for more searches. This really needs to be done.
