Site search obey AND

Post by Beherith »

Please make the forum search obey multiple queries. Like I wanted to search for spring mug. So I typed '+spring +mug' and it gave posts without mug :(

On a related note, I want a spring mug. There used to be something in this matter, anyone got the info?

I'm pretty sure it ignores mug because it's only three letters.

Yeah. Not like we'd ever want to search for anything under three letters. I mean, nobody would ever want to search for the words "lua" or "tdf" or "fbi" or "ee" or "ca" or "smd", right?

I am always searching for threads on the subject of ololololol and I find difficulty using the text search. Tags would help greatly.

actually the reason why searching something on the forum is so retarted is because the forum is run in a retarted way and people are being gay.
Like lots of thread have topics such as:
How Do I...
Is it possible to
Question!!
why does it not work

other forums i know threads like this are always deleted or renamed. why not here?

or this giant Mod Question Repository... Questions come in, answers go out thread
http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=7571
that are like 100 topics cramped into one thread. unsearchable.
small,easy to fix things but they make a big impression to people if they want to use spring or not.
