I know, I hate it too. We have to disable searching until the MySQL server can stabalize. HomeLAN and I are working on a fix, but part of that fix requires us logging things, which has a significant performance hit. To counter act that, I will be disabling searching. Currently, this only affects guests. Once you login, you will be able to search. I think that should be enough of an edge, but in the event it isn't, I will disable searching entirely until a permanent fix can be found.
[Edit : Yeah, so not that many guests search. User searching is going offline for a bit]
Do you mind getting really fucking drunk sometime between now and the new phpBB release? We haven't had any real hijinks in a while, and we all enjoy it when alcohol and coding skills collide.
I'll do what I can, but the lack of hijinks has been mostly due to IRL things (ie. people who pay me to work on websites). But dont worry, I've still got some pranks left in me yet.

People pay you to work on websites? Jesus McChrist, don't they know they could do it themselves and get a professional-looking website for FREE by using Geocities?
I'm taking three courses in the spring semester on HTML, Flash, and Java so that I'll never have to pay a web developer. At least nobody around here.
I'm starting to realize just how useful the search function was...

We are working with homelan to switch to a larger MySQL server. This will cause some downtime. My guess is the downtime will either be on Tuesday or Thursday. After the upgrade searching will be re-enabled.

I hope it actually makes things better. This has been the year of MySQL Errors. It used to never happen (well, rarely).

Growing pains. This is the year that a we tried to force an small scale server to perform high volumes of queries. 2005 will be a good year for the forums, new code, new database server, new pranks.
Ecoterrorism is actually the single largest terrorist threat at the moment. They don't usually kill people, but they blow up or set on fire very expensive things.
yeah wow... i have come here far far less without being able to search my posts and pick up where i left off.
hey
hey alpha
leave it turned off
pretty please?
At least for Deusfaux.
where's pheezer? the trifecta of MD deus bashing isnt complete without it :roll:
Let me be the first of the dodecafectra of non mod posters to jump on this bandwagon.
Unless by MD you meant they were all doctors? Because then I would make it a foursome. If I was a doctor.

Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
Searching is not intentionally disabled, this is a bug that I have come to terms with. I need to find a fix, but for the moment, Im on spring break, and my internet connectivity is intermittent at best.

Wet T-shirt contests have distracted alpha from his real love: the ego-search.

I use that damn ego search every day. If that ever breaks you can be sure that it will be moved to the top of my TODO list.
Also, sadly, Im in the less rowdy of the Florida cities. Its a nice area and the beach definatly has hot women, but the problem lies in for every hot girl around my age there are 10 people that do not fall into that description.

Wait, wait.
You're in the old people section of Florida?
Ewww..... :P
So, what're the chances of phpBB 3.0 fixing this when it rolls around?

I'm about to go from zero to drunk in $20.

Post whore ransom.
Those were the days.
lol, maybe it should remain a permanent "feature" and i could get some other things done
Or you could just remember which threads you've posted in. It's not that hard to do. :P
However, I've gone to H&R far less since the sessions have been all screwy. Or are those fixed...?

Luckily, I'm overcompensating for my new handicap by being extra mean.

If it's not against CIA policy to tell us, what orders does that translate into for Badger Two? I'm curious.
