Search Feature

Why is it that I can only search a word in a forum every 150 seconds? It is very, VERY frustrating when I'm trying to find something someone has written, but can't remember an exact key word that they used...

It's all about performance I believe. Excessive searching going on all at once, as was allowed in the past, caused database crashes and similar overload issues.

That should only happen if your a junior member.

So how do I move beyond "junior membership." I've been on the org. for a while. I just don't post much...

Oh. "They" do realize that encourages me to spam the forums with questions instead of utilizing the search feature right? 30 seconds would be a little easier to work with...

Waiting 2 and a half minutes isnt that much of a hardship if it means the rest of us can continue browsing at a decent speed.

While you wait for the reuse of the search function, you can post more

Lets look at the positives

Agreed.

I use the search function a lot, but I am willing to wait so I don't crash your system or make this forum a pain in the neck to navigate.

Patience is the watchword.
