Search Engine Tips
normal searching can be keywords separated by spaces, ie 'cool steel cages' (returns any record with one of those words)
for words you *must* have, add a '+', ie 'cool +steel cages' (returns any record with steel. Records with cool and cages will be returned first. If 'steel' is not found in any records, no results will be returned.)
for words you *can't* have, add a '-', ie 'cool +steel -cages' (returns any record with steel, but not cages. If a 'good' record also has cool, it's returned first. If there are no records *with* 'steel' but *without* 'cages', nothing will be returned, even if 'cool' is found.)
The 'Search In' drop-down allows you to search through the 'Current' active threads and messages in each forum, or you may select a year and search through the messages that have been archived.
Keywords are matched almost exactly. A search for 'wyvern' does not match 'phwyvern', etc. However, a search for plurals will revert back to singular. For example, a search for "blues" would match the word "blue", etc.
