This feature was rejected 10/4/2005: good idea ... just not something to do right now.

Improveing the Search Engine

I am thinking about making the search engine better. There is one simple way of doing that. Making it seach by catagory. IE, you search all games for the word jail and find 4 or 5 that isn't what you are looking for. If you know what section it is (Everything Else) you could pick it from, well, a checklist would be best.

Why a checklist? What if I want to search for a game about strange happenings and I find 20 or them but I don't like Space Games in which 13 happen in. I just uncheck that box and presto bango I have 7 games I might like and not 20 where I probably won't like 13.

This could be adapted to the forums search engine by doing it by forum or possibly section if you take that idea. Another thing you could do is search for topics about the site such as I want info on Pictures! No, I would never put this in a search engine but I put nothing in the box of words and check the box that is seperate from the forum/section checkbox and it takes me to a special forum that gets updated by mabey a MOD. So yah, these would be great things to add to the organization of games!

If I am a MOD then I will spend my first few days on this and moving posts into the right catagory. There just has to be a duplicute to forum feature.

Just putting what solo and JJJ said about random games in here.

Search for ratings, maturity, lenth, and difficulty. Those are for games though.

same thinga s before .... but I am slow to reply to these because I hate saying no to good ideas! But, this is another one of those "gotta be realistic" with my time things ... so for now, no ...

Got to be realistic huh? This could easily only take 4 days. I don't see why you can't slow down a major feature. Also, look at Runescapes new look for website format. That one is awsome.
