Search Feature

Finally bothered to search for the inclusion list.

TNL Ultra Hyper Word List 2004 Edition mk. 1:

Give me more to add. After a bit of that, I'll have the board reindex the search terms (boy oh boy, that'll be fun) and you can search for "ico rez rgb mode" to your heart's content.

[In Latka voice]- Thank you very much.

[Lhadatt]

Latka?

[Jeremy]

Lakta Gravas, from "Taxi", one of Andy Kaufman's most memorable characters.

[MechDeus]

JGR, JSR, PDS, M2.

And a great big thank you!

[Josh]

Don't forget "fag" and "gay".

the search function itself still isn't working correctly. example: a user goes to search for a specific set of posts after entering a keyword, chooses to have all the results as "posts" instead of threads in ascending order. however, the programming will display any/all results in "descending" order as if you didn't select anything at all. you still have to hit back, and refresh. that's not only time-consuming, but an inconvenience and should be patched up.

[Werewolf]

Well it makes it difficult to search for sequels, example:

Street Fighter II or Street Fighter 2
Final Fantasy IV or Final Fantasy 4

The last part is under 4 letters and for some reason even though the word is far over that limit it's still gives you the restriction message.

If any part is under 4 letters it rejects the search no matter how many letters are in the search, is there any way that this can be fixed?

JGR, JSR, PDS, M2.

And a great big thank you!

You forgot "Arc the Lad"... that's like a triple word bonus

Werewolf: Just do SF2, FF4 or leave the numbers off. We can't index individual numbers, that would be crazy in terms of storage and search indexing.

Bahn: That's probably specific to Beta 4. Moving to a new beta necessitates redoing all the code patches we've done, so I don't think it's viable until a release canidate hits unless it's a major bug. When RC-1 gets here, we'll talk.

Ok, redoing the search index now.
