Is 'Search' function functional?

[theguyintheshed]

Hello all,

 

New member to The Terminal forum, and I would search to see if this has been answered, but no matter what I enter to search for, it returns 'no results'.

 

I know many moderators get grumpy about bandwidth being used for the same query from a gazilion newbies, so I try to search before I bother anyone,  Still, if a topic is about 'Engines', is tagged 'Engines', and I search for 'engines', I should get some kind of result. Yes? Any response appreciated.

 

I am always willing to accept the proposition that I'm doing something wrong, or just plain stupid, so fire away.

the site and forum seems to have been experiencing some problems in the last period. for me random links didn't work at one time and i couldn't browse around abut now it's all working fine.

Thank you, Davidu, but doesn't answer my question. Is the search function  working or is the problem at my end? Anyone?

[Davidu]

Hmmm, it seems it's not working for me either. :(

 

Hopefully one of the moderators will notice this and try to fix it. There's still tons of cools tuff buried in these forums :)

I think I know the problem. Should be able to fix it soon.

[Davidu]

All hail Gob :D

[theguyintheshed]

Thank you both. BTW, just what is a "Gobalopper"? (Besides the kind moderator fixing the problem.)

[Davidu]

Well, for starters, he's the owner of the forums ;) nostalgically attached to this small community.

[theguyintheshed]

Yes, owner, got that. But, Gobalopper, what's a "Gobalopper"?

[Davidu]

Aaaa, the name? Beats me.
