Everybody is getting it. How annoying. Please get rid of this crap. If people cant figure out how to use search then let them be idiots. Dont crowd my screen with more worthless crap.

The deal is IB is letting all users know that search has been updated. See the thread right below this one.

Isn't that the point of sticky threads? Better yet put it on the search page.

See if this helps...

Press down the Control button and move your mouse wheel back and forth while watching the search message. It should get bigger and smaller. Stop on small.

I might get butt hurt if you could put a coherent sentence together. It doesn't take up any more space than the giant ad below it, and it is probably there to stop the huge amount of pointless threads started saying that the search is broken. FFS cry a little more over a free website.

how bout you just keep quiet and keep comments to yourself and this sentence is just for you have a nice day superhero

Pointless threads are gonna happen regardless. People need to relax, it the internet, some people I have met have owned their Lsx cars for years and don't even know of this website or even have internet. And the size of it is bout the size of the ad below it genius.
