While I am not necessarily defending Prussian Iron, I do have to say that most of the time the search function is very useless, as it only looks for matches like Ctrl+F, without sorting out the relevancy that much. Basically, any thread with those two words mentioned anywhere will be displayed. And there is a limit of 100 results. The Search function always works for me, but only after about 10-15 minutes of searching, if not more.
And I'm not being confrontational here, but as an example, to find the roman reforms I opened the FAQ, clicked "search" (or Ctrl+F) and typed "marian". I clicked once and found marian in a related question, I clicked for a second time and I found the Marian Reforms.
If you couldn't find it by "marian" you could have typed "reforms" or "roman", and to find the reforms section by that search criteria would have been a bit longer, but still a matter of seconds... The thing that I don't understand, is how is that so hard or time consuming to do?
Your welcome, stick around and keep posting.![]()

lol, i just realized i typed 'FAG' instead of 'FAQ' on accident. i edited it.
anyway, to all those telling people to press search, it never works. like said above,typing 'marian', 'roman', or 'reforms' into search box will turn up with every thread with any of those words in it. so, that argument is already invalid.
add to that the fact that he has no idea what was happening or what the marian reforms are, he probably wouldnt know what to type in.

The search they are referring to isn't the forum search feature its the text search feature located on typically the Edit menu of your browser. Here is the sequence that you should use to find "frequently asked questions".
1) go to the faq thread that is stickied at the top of the eb forum.
2) select search from the edit menu on your browser
3) type in the relevant word you are looking for like "marian" or "reform"
4) click search
5) press F3 to continue to the next instance of that word
6) repeat number 5 as many times as you like.
first:
i dont have that feature. i dont use retarded internet explorer.
second: how would he know it is marian reforms or anythin like that? he wouldnt have known to type that.

he meant the forum search function, there's a link with the latin letters S-E-A-R-C-H. It spells the english word 'search'.
Click that, and a seach tab would appear.
