hmmm.... well one thing i've noticed is that if you want to
look up threads about "Venetian Snares" the words "Venetian
Snares" have to be said somewhere within the thread. Usually
this isn't a problem, but when you're looking for a thread
with a particular title, where no words from the title are
said within the thread, that's a problem, and requires
digging, or remembering a word that was said within the
thread.

though to be honest, it doesn't really bother me too much.

fixing the Search function>breaking the ability to post
multiple lines

i'm so pissed at tunemx for doing that, like ive said
before, dude hardly ever even fucking posts here, and then
he goes and fucks it up for the rest of us

also using a + between words helps

"Venetian+Snares" or "Ways+to+Waste+your+life" (there's
almost 10K topics for that last one)

well logically, when searching for "Ways+to+Waste+your+life"
it should just bring up the regular first page.

i concur.

it's a real shame you can't search for 3-letter-long (or
shorter) words. nor even expressions containing a
3-letter-long (or shorter) word.

it's been said many times (and some weirdos still think it's
a good thing, for bandwidth or i don't know what kind of
excuse).

boo.

boo sir, boo and hiss.

but it's not like the search engine on the messageboard is
the biggest problem plaguing xltronic right now - i'm sure
phobia and the others have a billion other things to worry
about, like the site itself. :)

you just have to be creative when you search. if you put
enough effort into it, you can find what you are looking
for, for the most part.

a funny thing though, to find ecnadniarb's thread, "do you
like your own music too much?" you can find it instantly by
typing in the word "masturbation," due to a fuckwagon post
within that thread. hehe.

rez - sega, ps2, shooter, visuals
ico - ghost, princess, depressing, ps2, adventure

try those, i'm just guessing.

i did a search for "juxtaposition of auditory analysis and
coherent musical knowledge" and it returned no results.
conclusion: you're all stupid.

Use "or" mode instead of "and" mode. I had that problem too.
