Different ways of outputting your search:
- Most relevant topics first --> Checks based on your search query which topic matches your query the most and outputs this as first
- Largest topics first --> Checks based on the total amount of posts (the largest) in a topic and based on your query, which topic displays as first
- Smallest topics first -->Checks based on the total amount of posts (the smallest) in a topic and based on your query, which topic displays as first
- Most recent topics first --> Displays the output of your query based on the topics that were created recently
- Oldest topics first --> Displays the output of your query based on the topics that were created the first

What to do if hacked
Hi there,
I just made this account in order to get some assistance. My bitcointalk account has been hacked (password has been reset by someone else).
The e-mail address and bitcoin addresses associated with the account are mine and I can prove that. If this has happened to anyone, or you know the process to recover the account, can you please share some insight?
Thanks.
