View Full Version : The 'Search' function...

Yeah.


I didn't want to post a thread that was already brought up before by someone else in the past, so I decided to look up a thread that had the word 'big' in it. It wouldn't let me complete the search, because it only takes words that has more than 3 letters in it. I've tried combining the 3 words together, and it doesn't come up with anything at all. That just doesn't help. And I don't want to get in trouble from staff from double posting. >.> I've had other times when I have a word that's less than 3 words come up, and I can't search at all. T_T

I know it sounds kinda pointless, and it's probably going to get locked soon, but it gets seriously annoying sometimes.

I would kill for this to be done! For one thing I can't see if anyone talsk about me since everyone calls me CtR.

Plus there are times when I want to search something that only has 3 letters x_x and search for a real reason :P idk if it is possible though

I agree that if it could be made better, I would hope it should be. I have also had troubles with it in the past and it's one of those 'small' peeves but when running into the problem it can be consuming and irritating.

If something can't be done, I understand but I do support it if something could be.

I agree completely. Its kinda hard to find threads in the Code Vault with the 3 letter limit.

Well, it would be pretty damn convenient. I mean, it would be a lot easier than looking around the whole damn category just to find the one thread.

3 character limit ftl.

I want it changed also.

I have to agree. It's very inconvinent having to search up something no more than three words and then hoping to find the thing u want...

We should definately get this fixed, makes things a lot easier.

Yes, I agree with this.

It gets so annoying.

I would LOVE for this to be done.

I don't search for threads all that often. Though I think I have tried putting in L_F in the search bar since a few people refer to me that way. Or Fox. Since I'm curious what's being said about me but I can't since the stupid search criteria is a failure.

I'd like it changed if it were all possible.

God yes, if this is Possible make it so. It will make stalking CtR so much easier

lmao.


I don't get why it needs to be so that you can't search less than four letters. It annoys me too. >_>

Well, I dislike how sometimes, I have to skip out letters like 'of' and such...so yes, it'd be nice if the Search function would allow more letters. :)

Yes! Please get this fixed, if possible. :D

Oh yes that'd be heaps cool! I hate when I search for things that problem arises!

Something certainly needs to be done about the search function - in the end I just stoped using it because of the ridiculous limitations it has. (before I would stab something) No wonder people end up making already existing threads, man..

Yes, it can be a little annoying sometimes, so I agree with this.

Peyton

Well I completely agree with losing it, and this matter is being discussed among the staff.

it gets really annoying when you want to search for a thread with, org XIII, Key bearer, organization 13, CtR, bad, DiZ, fun, AMV, FMV etc.

HigherBeing
12-06-2007, 02:37 PM
Agreed, I think it should be changed as well.

AGREED. Its annoying to me. I can never type in "La Sofa". Just sofa. >_>

You search yourself? Loser.

I think it's to see if anyone is flaming him or talking about him behind his back.

Yeah I like to look for sea salt ice cream then it's like "you can't because it's too short"

I want it gone too...

You've tried searching for that more than once?

Alright then.

I think plenty of people have agreed with this. There shouldn't be a word limit.

Tikem
12-12-2007, 05:09 AM
There shouldn't. And yes ORANGE I think there's enough...

Peyton

Accepted and it will be proceeded with if possible.

Seriously, in the Code Vault, you search for a lot of short words often. Mod, AI, etc. I'd appreciate the required word length to be decreased to 2.

Mish
01-06-2008, 03:19 PM
This was brought up a while ago, but nooothing was done about it. :/

I think DS is the only who can change it, though, sooo... >_> yeah.

Everyone agreed but nothing happened, sooooo idk.

PM me with questions.

Why can't we search for words on the forum under 4 letters? There's a lot of important, key words that have only 3 letters, and some only 2. The first example of one such word that comes to MY mind would be Cin.

Hubba-Bubba-Bubbles

I agree with you I hate searching because I can never find what I want because it can only be 4 letters.I think it should have to be two.

Darkwatch
08-16-2008, 03:39 PM
I was wondering that as well. If it were changed to 2 or something, that would be fantastic. The only unnecessary words are the one letter ones, like "a" or "I" XD

Delicious ♥ Ambrosia
08-16-2008, 03:48 PM
- The search function not requiering more than three letters.(if it is possible to proceed with that is)

It got approved, but nothing was done about it. Kinda like spoiler tags *cough*

VideoGameNerd246
08-16-2008, 04:39 PM
Yeah. I agree since no one calls me by my full name, and I can't search VGN. >>

Darkandroid
08-16-2008, 09:10 PM
You have my support on that it does annoy me. I will see what I can do to get it changed.

Ienzo
08-16-2008, 09:36 PM
Yeah, I agree. I don't use the search much but whats wrong with it being under 4 letters?

Xaale
08-16-2008, 11:11 PM
I agree. The minimum should be either 2 or three letters. Some words like "the" and "and" are really important keywords. I don't see why we should have a limit to four letters. I'm all up for the idea.

Peyton
08-16-2008, 11:21 PM
I would prefer 1, xD it's annoying not being able to search my own name xD

And generally you should be able to search shorter words, and even letters.

But I think this was suggested before and that it wasn't possible to make the limit smaller ? D:

Agreed. For reasons already stated.

I believe we all agreed on this last time it was brought up but it was just not implemented. So yeah, it needs to be taken note of so that sooner or later we can get er done.

Roxasvsriku
08-17-2008, 04:59 AM
Alrighty, I changed the minimum letters needed in a search to 2. Fair enough?

Repliku
08-17-2008, 06:31 AM
You rule. Thanks for doing that. I'm sure we did cover this formerly so it's cool you implemented it so fast. Cool deal.
