Kinda OT (but mentioned in the OP...) but is there a way to improve the search feature on this site? Not to be rude, but it is awful. It's difficult to even find the thread for a specific dragon, and that should be super easy. And anything more complicated than that ... just forget about it.

For example, let's say I want info about the Daywing Dragon. Here are the completely useless results that pop up when I type "Daywing" or "Daywing Dragon" in the search bar:

42647

The main thread for the Daywing Dragon should be the first result, and it's not even on the first page. It should not take an advanced search to locate basic info. The advanced search feature doesn't even help. When I directed it to search all thread titles for the word "Daywing" it gave me "sorry- no matches" as the result.

Really, this whole site needs to be reorganized to be more user-friendly.

I do my query search on Google with the following text

"your search keyword(s)" space "storm8" space "forum" ★

You'll get something of importance after that (: ★

I agree and it's been like that for years!! HA HA :D

I also just use Google, it at least got me really close when I was looking for something specific.
