FYI, I reindexed the board search and got rid of the super annoying "Words are too common" thing.
Search should be much more useful here now.

Re: Board Search..
I call BS.
I searched for the word "if".
"The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words: if.
You must specify at least one word to search for. Each word must consist of at least 3 characters and must not contain more than 14 characters excluding wildcards."
It is better than before tho. Thank you pooty!

Re: Board Search..
3 character minimum.
It was driving me nuts not being able to search for things properly. Who the F sets up the default indexing like that? It basically says if a word is in X% of the posts its too common. So even some of the UT specific terms were getting that message... But it takes up to 10 terms. Seems like decent enough search (for free) but why set it up that way? Either way its better now.

Could you also disable the link shortener?

Re: Board Search..
May I suggest this extension? I haven't tested/used it but supposedly it allows you to embed media such as youtube videos.

Re: Board Search..

Re: Board Search..
I have found that all my friends that I thought I had. had been removed. Maybe that was the previous BBS? Anyways, I friended you pooty <3 I reall miss you guys. My imac that had the game is now no longer functioning/logging in. I think it is a power issue. New news is, I'm getting deep into the AI image generation with Midjourney and StableDiffusion and OpenAI-GPT4 Dalle. It's loads of interesting angles.
