Search Function
« on: 30 November 2014, 21:50:24 »
Hi,

When researching rules the 30 second delay in searching can slow things down.  Does the site have the bandwidth to reduce the delay between searches?

Also would it be possible to set the search up to search in multiple forums at the same time.  I.E Total Warfare, Errata, Ask the Developer at the same time.

Thanks

Searching would be a function of processing power to troll the database, not a function of bandwidth to send the results to you.
Power corrupts. Absolute power is kinda neat.

Click to expand the "Choose a board to search in, or search all" heading, it'll show all forums.
Default search covers all forums, you can narrow it down more to reduce results.
The solution is just ignore Paul.
