How is the GFY "Search" set up ?

**_Richard_** · 04-03-2009, 02:56 PM

or when you search for created threads by username..

**fris** · 04-03-2009, 04:04 PM

i think they dont index it regularly

**donkevlar** · 04-03-2009, 04:08 PM

I think it's like kids with washing dishes... if they perform bad enough, they won't be asked anymore.

how does it work?

**RevShare it!** · 04-03-2009, 04:11 PM

It takes awhile for the new threads to be included in searches.

HAHAHA, I like that answer LOL

I guess the 'not updated yet' answer makes the most sense, but then again I would've figured it would've been a feature that operated much like the "find" feature in word or windows, not requiring regular updates... *shrugs*

SQL queries.

It has been jacked for about a year now. I mentioned it long ago but no one seemed to care.

It's been more than a year. In fact I think the broken search is one of the reasons for GFY's decline. You can't find any biz threads, you are limited to the first few pages of trash.

Oh come now, that's got nothing to do with the search feature LOL

To be honest, upon my return I thought this place had improved a great deal from where it was a couple years ago.

**HorseShit** · 04-05-2009, 07:07 AM

One thing that bugs me is if you search for something and no results are found, that page comes up instantly but you still have to wait 2 minutes or whatever to search again.

I have noticed many things that aren't indexed also which can be a good thing sometimes

**bobby666** · 04-05-2009, 10:14 AM

i notice that when is did my last search for Shemp

let me simplify it for you...

**NicelyWritten** · 04-05-2009, 11:55 AM

I find threads a little easier by doing this:

Google.com > site:gfy.com "search whatever"
