Now, there will be tons of people asking the same questions over and over. Gfy was a knowledge base when you could search it. The only thing positive is people not bumping old threads but how big of a problem was that?

The problem was that searches are what was slowing the site down to nearly unusable levels.
That's why, if you've noticed, the site is WAY faster now.
Now, hopefully they'll work to bring search back in a way that allows the functionality, but without the performance drawbacks.

What's funny is that a couple years back the search was removed for about 3 months and NOBODY complained.Comment

Knocked half the functionality of the site off....
On the upside, page views for listings will probably go up as people try to search manually.Comment

GFY should really hire a real sysadmin if they can't figure out how to make vbulletin run quickly on this amount of users.Comment
-
fuzebox - theyve needed to do that for years - someone that knows vbulletin and server admin would be a huge boost to this board - but seems like it always falls on deaf earsComment

the point was to see how many idiots would make threads saying why is search disabledSince 1999: 69 Adult Industry awards for Best Hosting Company and professional excellence.

Sorry man, you're wrong. People did complain...LOUDLY in fact. It just wasn't fashionable to have your own thread about it, and there were a LOT less useless posters.
When the search is back up I'll prove it if you need me too. I suspect it'll be up shortly after this skin is down.Comment

What he said, quoted in non-color non-bold for your non-annoying viewing... because what he said is correct.The problem was that searches are what was slowing the site down to nearly unusable levels.

Also correct. People did complain back then as well.
Personally I don't mind putting up with the inconvenience for a while, as long as it eventually means the board improves. I'm all for improving things, always.Promote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!

You know, that may not be a bad idea actually. Is it possible for Lens to farm out the search function? That way the load from searches falls on other servers, Lens pays for the bandwidth, we now have search AND a speedy board.
Doable?
I don't see why not, everything is doable. :DPromote Wildmatch, ImLive, Sexier.com, and more!!

Tons, I still admin a board with 50k+ members, 500k+ threads, tons of daily whore threads and searches being ran around the clock, and the board runs snappy on a pair of low end servers from theplanet.com which I log into every 3 months or so.
I don't get how with 6 figures monthly revenue, and their own hosting company, why GFY can't manage to do the same...Comment

you could mirror the search data over to another server, and do searches via another domainSince 1999: 69 Adult Industry awards for Best Hosting Company and professional excellence.

Figure the scale of GFY. There are plenty of companies out there running bots 24 hours a day, probably every few minutes, looking for threads with things like "I need a host" or "spam me with feeds" so they can jump in an autopost bullshit.
There are also bots out there whacking at the DB looking for new threads so they can post "sig post" and "fifty pissed off webmasters" at the right point to secure sig space.
Then there is apparently a large number of extremely paranoid program owners and invidivuals who feed the need to search for their names 100 times per day to make sure we didn't say they are caners or that their program sucks donkey dicks or that they are legendary liars.
Your site ain't got nothing on what the GFY search is suffering through.
That and sometimes I think this board is run on massively out of date software, operating systems, and servers.Comment
