if every thread on GFY was about the search function...
 

do you think lensman will bring it back?

or maybe we should all make a pact not to post anymore until the search is back? :1orglaugh

discuss / debate

:1orglaugh

please do, makes it a bit easier, but last time i checked it gave me all kind of weird errors

it's

ridiculous

Not every thread.

...There would be no need for a search option :1orglaugh

i think there is a reason its not active no? he cant just bring it back if its still going to fuck shit up

Search is the most taxing function a website can run. Unfortunately Lensman doesn't think GFY is a big enough money maker to be sporting a 3ghz proccessor or 2gigs of ram or 2 raid0 SCSI HD's or a 800mhz front side bus or.... the list goes on... If GFY is making his business even 5k a month then I'd think that investing in a $7,000 server would be worth it since I'd see more ads if I could search for shit.

there HAS to be a way to have the search function as well as fix what is wrong at the same time

this isin't a paradox people :1orglaugh

I also thought about the GFY boycott idea till the search is up again.
But officially proposing it would only get me banned.

Fact is that i post less here and the board lost for me 75% of its value sicne the search function doesn't work.

I hope it gets sorted out soon...i mean i could even pay a small fee for it, but it'a a crucial board feature for me and many others.

Lensman responded the other day to one of them.... said that they're working on a new search. I guess that it will be more secure and less server intensive.

As it stands now... you either get a working search or a working message board. You can't have both... until they get the new search script done.

are you kidding me - this board makes lensman millions.

think about it, there are at least 30 sponsors that spend at least 1k/month on advertising - many spend a lot more...

not having the search function will eventually kill gfy

Yeah that pact would last about 12 seconds.

Yeh and then we get banned? :warning

The search function is a useful tool. It needs to be enabled.

Since it's disabled, ppl will post the same questions...Means more posts, more reloads, and more banner impressions....

Good point!

Have not looked at it that way.

They should at least take the link down.... :2 cents:
