I can't seem to search through the forums with keywords. I always get a little yellow bar where i think the posts should be shoing up. Is this an internet explorer problem? It happens a two different computers of mine.

From what I understand they have disabled the Search feature for the time being, because of traffic and web speed issues. That's what I heard form someone else.

Having search is a must for the spoilers section. I hate being forced to read subject titles that may spoil future areas for me. I'd rather search for exactly what is giving me trouble and only see that post.

It would also be nice if:

There was a message saying it was disabled (as I cannot search the forums to find that out!).

The search page had a link back to the forum you were on.

This thread was created eight months ago and the search still isn't enabled? Wtf? What kind of forum has no search option?

The search is still amateurish in extreme, yes.  It maxes out at 13 characters, counting a space between two short words or parts of words.  It also maxes at 51 hits, and wants the oldest of those, instead of the newest. 

There is a way to name the site (here) to Google, and use all of Google's filters aimed at the database they have for this site.
