This does not happen only in the forum. I have repeatedly encountered sites that have an internal search engine that searches worse than google. And I guess not all of them are broken. In the end I go directly to google every time.

I'm not a member of any other discussion forums anymore, but I believe you (and I do believe you're talking about other types of websites as well).

I guess there's a lot under the hood as far as search engines go, and I only understand enough about them to type in some words and hit enter. Am I wrong in assuming that it's either difficult or a pain in the ass to create a functional internal search engine? My further assumption that Theymos isn't a slacker and would have one running that didn't have members going to google instead is a valid one I think. But then again, we've been waiting on that new forum software for years now.

In fact, the community has been actively joking about it for years, so I don't know which end is up if y'all know what I mean.
