Does it work for you? It does not find anything for me (tried with the keyword "Archer" and "Tempest"), with a zero second query, it seems disabled.

Doesn't work for me either. Tried "Narc" "tag" "Hunchback" "Spider" nothing had any results.

Fun stuff PGI.

Wonder if there is going to be a spike in new posts.

Ain't that big of a deal right?... its just php :)

Even if needed... it shouldn't be that hard to rewrite the whole "search system"

Nope. I was wondering if it was me. Just sends me to a Page that says it can't find anything. No matter what you type in it.

Just use google. Start all searches with: MWO then whatever terms you need. First block of hits is 99% of the time forum threads and specific posts. Great at finding older stuff. Doesn't work as well for really recent posts. Still, better than nothing.

Use google. Add "site:mwomercs.com" to the end of your search query and you'll get just stuff from this site.

The forum's built-in search function is terrible even when it does work.

*bump*
Also I'd like to report the bug, that forum posts seem to be ignored by PGI.
Suggestion: If post has been noticed, some senpai writes into the post, that it has been noticed.

Just so I can double like it double :) The site search function, when it was working, would show the oldest threads made, from 2013/etc, no way to sort it or prioritize what is being searched for.

Use google. Add "site:mwomercs.com" at the end of the search query gives you more function and is definitely quicker.
