It's useless...I can't find anything with it.
That's 'cause you don't know how to SEARCH, NOOB!
Actually, it is quite limited, but I can usually find what I'm looking for with a little effort.
I can't find anything...intentionally, anyway. If I do stumble across what I was looking for it's by complete fluke. Here's a good example...try searching for the word harley .
As I've just posted this, the the first result should be this thread. I even left a space around it, no quotations...it's all out there by it's self. The first post it comes up with was in April...
....and now that I search it again, the first post to come up is in May of 2004!
Did you try the advanced-search feature, checking only the "General Discussion" section?
yes. you try it...you'll see what I'm talking about.
Only 24 pages....add another search term, and you'd probably cut it down to a dozen or less. ;)
k it's me...I didn't know what I was doing. I've been missing that little box that says "show most relevent first" :rolleyes:
You also need to know how to do a boolean search. It helps.. A lot.

ummmm k?
You just gatta know how to work it... type in your word gently... dont force it. If that doesnt work type in a little bit of the word, then erase it, and repeat. This builds up lubrication for the entire word. The computer then goes into search mode. When its near completion the computer will make a strange noise, kind of like a moaning sound then it will soon spill all of the information all over the screen.
o yeah, boolean helps too aka using AND NOT and OR to refine the search.
