Search is much improved
« on: July 08, 2014, 11:22:21 AM »
I still get what I consider "empty" hits (search hits that don't actually have the stuff I'm searching for) but for some reason searches are responding really fast today.

WELCOME BACK SERACK.   

Some of us missed you hearing your voice.   ;)

FWIW, I feel obligated to point out that the search function still doesn't hold a candle to the quality of the results you could get when it was possible to "Google Search" the forum (IMHO).  I realize that there was probably a good reason for disabling that option (e.g. too many bot queries), but I know that I personally found it very useful.

Before any mod complains, complain first to the big S curator...  ;)

Perhaps this time I shall succeed where my will has failed me before...
