Wherein the poster complains about the search function and people in one!

Well you know what? Get over it - no forum ever runs that smooth. It's still no reason to act like asses to people.

lol... twat. Nice word... Completely forgot about that word. Twat.

Anyways, I've learned through reading all the threads that it's safe for people to talk big behind computer screens and little avatars. Take comfort in knowing that some of these people would shell up if you met them in real life.

THis is completely true. And this is a thread that we didnt need. You are now part of the problem of unnecessary threads. If they used the search function then we wouldnt have to sift through tons of pointless threads and we could keep on track.

Just my 2 cents. No offense. USE SEARCH BUTTON new posters please.

It seems to me that it's mostly new posters being "twats" to other new posters.

No, don't go looking at post count. Look at join date.

I gotta be honest- the search button: is shit.

it's pointless. I search for a key word and it gives me about 3,000 listings of someone using that word. Most the shit you wanna look up is too abundant. By the time you find the shit, you've already forgotten the point of searching it.

Well, if you know how to use it, you can narrow your search to specific words in the topic title.

So if you search "Cloverfield monster picture", only threads with all three of those words in the topic title will show.

And yes, using the search is confusing, but it does work.

Thats fine and dandy using the search but if you come up with something odds are you use the keyword search and you are going to get 100s of results then have to read every post in every one of those results to find if its trout. Some of the people who have been here longer are by no means smarter, some people are pretty consistent in being a moron. NOBODY other then the mods have ownership to this site or should be telling someone else what to post. Its bad enough when someone trouts but then someone has to go and make more useless posts telling them so. A good number of posts that have been trouted have OLD and new members alike posting in them before some other Johnny come latley posts a trout. Probably just Napolean Syndrome. Calling this post worthless but doing so by posting in it IS NOT helping the problem. I agree with the earlier poster that alot of people are real hardasses.......from waaay over there where no one can see them.
