Do you see the big sticky ##Updated Search Information##?

If you read it, in that thread it tells you how to search.

The search system is being changed. That is why it does not work unless you follow the directions that are in that thread. New software and servers will be here at the end of this month.

In a nutshell, it doesn't work the way it used to and it won't for awhile. There are some Mickey Mouse ways to find what you need, but it takes more time (your time) to enter in the requisite info and/or to manually read through your search results.

A quick way to find posts you've made, click on your name over your avatar, and click on Find more posts by xxxxx.

Don't worry Fahad, your only mistake was assuming things worked the way they used to. Remember, there are only work-arounds instead of solutions at this point.

Well, love your assumptions there. But, as it has been outlined several times, this is a temporary problem, with a permanent solution in the works. This is the current search that will be used, but right now the GUI does not support the advanced search options. When done, it will.

Looks like your confirmed the assumptions. You confirmed that currently there are problems and temporary solutions which support the fact search doesn't work the way it use to.

Thanks!

There were no assumptions necessary. Some folks just aren't sharp enough to pick up on the cryptic secretive messages in those well hidden stickies.
