Once again here I am complaining about the search machine. It doesn't work.

I did a search on "Abraham" with every conceivable combination and always got ZERO, no matches, nada, zilp, zilch, except for once, when I got pages and pages of threads with NO mention of Abraham whatsoever.

Try it WITHOUT the "Archived Posts" box checked. I checked that box and it returned immediately with no results. I tried again with the box UNchecked and my search timed out. Also narrow down your criteria. NOT just "Abraham" but maybe "Abraham" and "Martin" and "John"..... Tongue

I tried a search on "Abraham" "son" and got results. Cool

Laika: Try it WITHOUT the "Archived Posts" box checked. I checked that box and it returned immediately with no results.

Tom: More proof that it doesn't work. There are several threads that SHOULD have turned up with the box checked.

Laika: I tried again with the box UNchecked and my search timed out.

Tom: See.

I can't ever get the search engine to work for me, either. I even just put my name as the only search variable, and nothing came up.

When I did:

Search For: Christmas pagan
Search for all Words
Search In: Entire Message
Archived Posts OFF
Search By Member: John Earp

I got nothing. When I changed it to Search for any Words, I got results.
