Re: Search bug on forums
You encourage ppl to use search, but when they do you put this limit that in my opinion is too long wait.ThePhoenixBird wrote:So? just wait a few seconds before going to page 2
You enter something to search for, look through the first page of results, finds nothing, and want to look on next page... so you click next... and get "Sorry but you cannot use search at this time. Please try again in a few minutes."
You're not searching again.... you did the searching, but wasn't provided all pages of the search-result, and should therefor be allowed to view all the pages of it, without any time-restriction.
This is silly, and makes ppl not want to search. Very annoying!

Re: Search bug on forums
True that its silly, but im sure its so that bots dont get through so easily, or to not spam the database with each search. However, imo its way too long. It could be much shorter and nicer ^^Notorious wrote:You encourage ppl to use search, but when they do you put this limit that in my opinion is too long wait.ThePhoenixBird wrote:So? just wait a few seconds before going to page 2

It was to save some CPU cycles, anyways reduced the wait time for search to 10s to normal users and 300s for guests.
