Title: LFG corruption?
Post by: cookie monster on May 14, 2012, 03:20:58 PM
It seems that LFG has corrupted the shout box, I have asked the same question 3 times and every time it gets covered up by LFG notices.
Does this happen to other people often to? Or is it just bad timing on my part?

Personally, I don't use the shout box often, so no. By the way what was your question, I might be able to help?

The question was: What happened to all of the cool stuff Zardeck made?

It slowed the forums to a snail crawl?

My guess is that it is either:

1 - gone temporarily because Zardeck recently had to move his entire RC to a different server

or

2 - gone permanently because Zardeck hasn't found a way to implement the bells and whistles without seriously slowing down the regular forum functions.

I haven't used the search function here on the forum forever anyway.  A much better way to search for me has been to use Google.

I just type what I want to search in quotes and then put the site.  It quickly finds what I need.  For instance I recently searched for:

wikipedia nature site:cactusgamedesign.com

and it took me right to the post that I needed from years ago giving support to Wikipedia that I needed for a thread today :)

Google works but I think just having the card search is much more useful then Google. Zardeck should make that a Regular function. Speaking of Zardeck, I haven't faerd much from him lately, I ven sent him a PM and he never responded.  ::)

considering the card search connects to RC! which has been down quite often lately, it's probably not a good idea to have the card search enabled at the current time. When RC! goes down the card search could crash the boards since it can't connect to RC! when it's down.

Do you know why Zardeck has not been on the boards lately? Just wondering ::)

I would assume he's probably busy with getting ready for college and working on other projects.
