Why cant I search?
 

Most sections don't even have a search button for me?. There is a search button in the vendors section b/c I tried searching for something but it said I didn't have permission?

Same here, only thing I can think of is that my star expired yesterday but I don't remember not being able to do searches before I bought it....

Working on the site man, just give it a lil bit. "thumbsup"

Cool, thanks!"thumbsup"

Thanks eeepee.

I've disabled searching for non subscribed members tonight because the server loads was through the roof the last couple nights.

So what are you going to tell kids who want to know what they should buy for their AX10? Cant tell them to search... :lol:

Just kidding of course, thanks for the info eeepee aand badger "thumbsup"

Yeah, whats with all the traffic lately? :D :ror:

badger is this going to be a permanent change or just a temporary measure until the load goes back to normal again?

What about the New Post button? That's gone now too:-(

Part of searching.

Sorry guys the new influx of people is really draining the site and it takes money which is hard to come by to make it better. So to keep things flowing efficiently some features may be shut down from time to time until money grows on trees!

Or until more people buy their star.;-)

We have been running into some huge loads over the last few days. We have a new server being built that should fix the problem, however in the meantime we have made a few changes to be easier on the server. One of those things is we have disabled search for non supporting members.

We try to turn it on during the daytime and just turn it off during peak usage, but sometimes it has to stay off.

I know this is a pain in the ass, but we are working on a more long term solution.

I blame Traxxas :ror:

Sweet good to know, thanks jason.
Also for you guys who are clueless on how to find a question rather than making a new topic, search the key word(s) on google and put rccrawler in it. it will sometimes find a thread and be near the top of your results. But you should buy a star (and so should i) so you can use the search on here 8)

No problem. I'm not complaining I was just curious if it was permanent or not. Forums to me always seem like a never ending cycle. If it is not bandwith it is server load.

Now where did I put that money tree? :-P

Ditto. :ror:

so I was trying to do a search. to see what kind of pinion to put on my clod axle but I cant find the search button anymore..

I am a relative newbie, have visited this forum almost daily for over a year and have no idea what a star is or how you go about buying one. I would definately buy one to help fund continuous improvement for the site. I have gotten alot of useful info from here and would like to be able to continue searching for it rather than asking.
