As i said i OT earlier, using the search box at the top of the page (duh, that seems to be a pretty fscking obvious place to start), i search for 'dug777', and i don't get a single hit...never mind that i've been quoted maybe a few thousand times in the last ninety days...which doesn't even take into account the number of times 'dug777' has been typed...
That would seem to prove without a doubt that search is kaput. dead. deceased.
Some smart ass is going to come along & say 'well, you need to change the xy box to xtyx in your account wibble settings, which you can find at coordinates XY (if you are running 800x600, otherwise convert those using the following algorithm you need to write yourself), and then the search at the top of OT will work perfectly, it always has for me :smug:'...
Face it, basic search at the top of each forum page should work, it's the most basic thing a site like this should have...
