So I take it that none of these 73 threads returned from inputting "fogs AND bulb" got you an answer?

I take it that this thread DID NOT come up upon inputing the search criteria.

Old Search

I think i like the old search better. I just liked it when it popped up like 50 results per page and not like 10.

Please tell me if im just overlooking something and i can make this search do that too.

The search feature is case sensitive. Entering "Fogs" (which is in this message) and "bulbs" (also here) does bring up this thread.

The search is only as good as the searcher.

Actually, I'm incorrect -- it's not case sensitive. For some reason the link that I posted is incorrect.

A search for "fogs AND bulb" or "Fogs AND bulb" will get you the same thing -- including this post.

Why the F*** is it such a problem when someone asks a question that was discussed 2 months, last week, or yesterday??
YOU don't have to reply (YOU being whoever is complaining...) Ignore the thread don't offer your input on the forum that is supposed to be for MAX owners helping MAX owners

He could have asked nicely without trashing the search function. He is asking for negative feedback with that attitude.

thank you

wow, that makes sense. so glad to see that there are at least a few people left that make sense nowadays. oh yeah, the key line goes something like this: "if you dont want to answer a thread, INGNORE the damn thing". later.

If you were as smart as your Anus, maybe it would have dawned on you that perhaps the one who put up the post, posted it because….HE DOESN’T HAVE A DAMN MANUAL. I tell you, it’s like battle of the Cry Baby’s when it comes to asking simple questions these days. There WAS a time that one could just ask a question on this forum and not have to worry about FELLOW Max owners taking childish swipes at there comments. The task is not very hard at all, quite brilliant in it’s simplicity……….if you can’t answer the posted question DON’T ANSWER IT!! If it was such a big deal for people to ask questions that have already been asked Why Bother with unproductive Comments? It is as simple as that, but I swear you DAMN vultures just swarm around the forum looking for ***** to bust. Well do me a favor…..PLEASE HOP OFF MINE, we got a word for people like that in N.Y. but I’ll spare you the details. Im not one to break on things just for the Fame of having something to say. If the search option didn’t work, then guess what….IT DIDN’T WORK. I could care less about all the other people it worked for, but telling me that does what for my initial question?.….NOT a Damn Thing. If you *** would even so much as take the time to take a look at the sort of posts a member has put up in the past You might find that CAPITONE does not make comments for the hell of it, Nor does he take unwarranted stabs at the forum or its members. The search option IS NOT as efficient as it could be…..am I lying? I attempted to ignore the turds that might drop in my post, but I’ve seen the Crap happen to too many members on this forum AND MOST OF THEM NEWBIES. If it is a simple question and you don’t want to answer it, IGNORE IT! We don’t need your counterproductive remarks. Your not the ONLY member with a answer, and as I can see there are still are Down II Earth Members (Ravq, TommyboiSxty9, Riggy ) willing to keep things simple and just answer the DAMN question asked. It only took a few letters of the Alphabet to answer mine……I mean what the……nevermind. Im leaving this at that. Flame it all you want, I finally got my answer……..
