Maybe it has to do with the increased traffic (and posting), so the search function can't update itself quick enough...

... I have no idea. Jarmo !!

Since we had some issues yesterday, I disabled search for now.


I figured it's better to have a board up and running, than not due to lots of people searching hundreds of thousands of posts containing the word Axl....

Before the search function was taken away, it would take FOREVER to run that function.

And I am on a high speed connection, so something was off kilter.

I'm sure traffic on this site has grown a lot in the last week due to the news on CD.

Right. So I was about to use the search function, when it occured to me that it may still be down. Not wanting to waste the precious time I have that is my life (no, never) typing extensively the two words that I wanted to search for (nor less then check that I had spelt them correctly!) I allowed my fingers to randomly enter some jibberish and then press enter in order to see whether or not I would be able to perform said search.

"i...o...h...'Enter'"
(Though it was actually a lot quicker than that)

To my suprise, the search contained one result.

A post in a thread started by myself on October the 3rd, 2003.

It would have been better had it been something that I had actually posted, but still... That is absolutely insane.

Actually. On consideration, given the nature of the thread, it was bound to happen.

Carry on.
