Just a reminder. The site performance is still terrible when searching through the forums. It's basically unusable. Being able to search through the forums is critical to the success of new developers (and old ones) since a gross amount of BYOND documentation and how-to's are actually buried in the forums somewhere.

It takes about 25 seconds on a high-end system/connection to perform searches.
There's absolutely no need to post a reminder about this, Lummox has already made it clear that he's aware of the problem, even knows the cause, but there's no feasible way to resolve it at the time being.
He could at least fix the search scope...
Or keep focusing on the software like he needs to.
"Needs" is a bit overambitious. Changing the search scope would take literally two minutes. It's just swapping the priority, since you already have local scope AFTER doing global scope.

I'm a firm believer that the power of BYOND is the community and the hub and the website, not the actual engine so much.
the name is BYOND Software, now... /shrug

You highly underestimate the complexity of BYOND's site code, there's no such thing as quick changes.

If anything, he's highly overestimating the abilities of other(s).

Not two minutes, but it probably would be quick. The problem is changing gears to get it done. It's on my List to look at soon.
