you know another thing that bothers me about this site...Anytime my topic gets moved, it no longer appears when I do a search for threads started by me!!! I hate that! I post a thread looking for an answer and then when I go to see if anyone has responded, I can't find the damn thing!

^ I can attest to that, chaotic's a searching machine. It also helps that mods don't have to wait an hour and a half between searches

Please understand that this issue effects the Staff here particularly hard as we spend a lot of our time *attempting* to search for posts and issues. As stated before, IB is WELL aware of this issue and are working on a fix right now. Unfortunately, a simple return to the old way is not possible due to tech issues with the server migration and software integration with the larger IB network. We do hear your concerns and are working on it, unfortunately I cannot provide an ETR at this time.

The search function is properly indexing again. We apologize for the inconvenience (and trust me, the staff sympathizes!).

Is the search function not working for anyone else today? I keep getting directed to a page titled: "Improve your search results: Click here for Search Commands, Tips & Tricks."
