OH MY GOD I AM EVIL HACKER because i tried to find out what I posted a few weeks ago

[Patron]

I right clicked my name at the bottom of https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/index.php?

I then clicked open in new window

then left clicked "Find all posts by Patron"


Patron, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:

Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

That feature is disabled for all patrons because, from what I understand, it stresses the database for some reason. It's not just you.

Correct.

Search thinglet is bigger than it seems. Wikipedia's search had been disabled for a few months for "performance issues" as well. Then somebody gave them additional servers...

Just think of what a search does: it looks at every post and tries to match what you are looking for, hence it does stress the server quite a bit.

So rather then finding what you want and watching the entire site crash on everyone the function has been disabled.
