Before the site was converted I used to get MANY more hits on searches. Now I can search for something like "Hurst" in the topic and only get a handfull of threads.

Other than that this forum is GREAT!!!!

I can't answer your question BUT I have to agree with you, the search here just is not helpful.

The search before the software change was very useful and helpful.

Now it's useless.......................... oh well, can't complain when it's all free........

I don't need the sarcasm... I'm kinda ticked that our most valuable asset & most helpful tool of this site, just doesn't work properly.
