Wtf is with the search feature?!

I don't know about you guys but I can't find squat using search. I put in a couple terms or even the title of threads I created myself and I get 10 pages of garbage with no relation to what I was searching for.

I've had the same problem. So I don't use it. What's up with the FAQ button at the top? I click on it now and get the message that the web page cannot be displayed.

I've done that. Seems Google works better at searching this forum than the forum search feature.

The search usually works for me, but you have to click on the advanced option and fill in the specifics.

The tools button however, does fuck all... :S

Yeah Google is the way 2 go, unless u can remember the name of the thread starter, u can normally find them through the search on here. Pain tho.

Its a weak search tool; granted

The other advantage of google is that it shows you matches from other websites.
