The old search format. Before the Google-Search thing.
Its faster, easier to choose what you want, in what area, and by whom... Whether you want to go by topic or content...
Please? |

Francis says he's going to try too, but it's hard because it noms up so many bandwidths every time you do a search. There are thousands of posts and topics and words and codes on digibutter, and every time you did a search, the site would have to go through ever single one. |

Is there a way to streamline the search engine? |

I seem to remember Francis saying that it was the CPU that was getting nommed by the search, not the bandwidths. </loltechnicalcorrection> |

Well he said it's nomming something that we don't want nommed. At least at the rate that the search was nomming it. |

Sure, why not? I never use the search but everyone else seems to hate this one and love to old one.

Francis said before not to say anything about usage of resources for reasons why not. I think that's what zim/strongbad's sayin. |

I rarely use search, but mostly because the Google is so darn inconvenient.
Is there any alternative to our bandwidths-eating monster and the searching tycoon? |

... What are you talking about ?
Do you mean the one with "Posts since your lasts visit", "Your Posts", "Unanswered ones" ? 'Cos that's all it takes for me. The topics I revisit I get email from, the rest I just look at. |

... People use that ?
Or am I being an ass by using the old search ?
Anyway, if I need to find a certain topic, I just click on the "My posts" link.
Is that bad ? |
