Why even list search bots? The search doesn't even work right. Google gets a more accurate hit. The search function needs some work. Not trying to be an ass, I mean I like the rest of the site, but the search is broken, and it leads to multiple threads on the same subject. Please work on fixing this. And again, I'm not trying to be an ass. Just outspoken.
Say something clever here...

No, I'm too lazy. Imagine it yourself.

Agreed.  But Nathan's had this site since 1997, and I think his enthusiasm for it's waned over the years.  I dunno how much he wants to hassle with it at this point.  I'm just glad the site's still around.  It was kinda iffy there for awhile back in 2008.  When you see that many people "joined" in April of 2008, that's not accurate.  Some current and active members have actually been here since the 90s.

I'm glad this site is still around, too. I didn't know what the background was, and that the site has been around for that long.. I once owned a site, in around the year 2000-2001 til about 2005-2006. Was "mailorderweed.com .If I only knew...

I think one of the board members here should create a new account with username Search Nazi.  Then when someone creates a duplicate post on an existing commercial, Search Nazi can point out that it has been previously done.  Whoever gets the most Search Nazi violations per three-month period, gets a prize.  Evil Smile

But, alas, duplicate username accounts are not allowed.  Unhappy

I hate to be the search Nazi, But some people don't even look.
It does work if people type in the proper title.

Or Google, as some others have suggested.  Smile

When I joined in late 2011 I soon encountered the current duplicate thread Nazi MrsHill. PaWolf clued me in to the advanced search which usually works for me.
