I was trying to find a very insightful thread called "If the signs say "no guns" do you follow them?"

I think it was in the team Forum, so it begs the question?

Why isn't the Team Forum part of Search?

Your search-fu is just weak--www.ar15.com/forums/topic.html?b=1&f=75&t=383274

Make sure you set the date back far enough to catch what you are looking for.  


Thanks tbk

And the team forum is included when you select general as the board.

Staph is short for Staphylococcus.

You can't search the Team Form either in the active posts or in the archive. I have brought this up before but it has never been explained why the Team Forum is excluded..

It works for me--dunno if Staff has a better search thingy or not.  



Would you please ask his Goatness why the Team Members can't search the active or the archive Team Forum. TIA

I can and did--that's how I got the link above, using just the keyword "sign."  Dunno how/why, but it showed up.  I was on the second page of threads.  You would be surprised how many threads came up--"design" and "sign of the apocalypse" and such are more common that I would have imagined.  Perhaps staff has some special search function available--but I've never been told that.  



Yes I realize staff can search the TF but non-staff cannot. Since we can only display active posts that are no older then 30 days everything in the TF that is older then 30 days is lost to us. Anything that has been archived is also lost to us as well.

Since the question has been asked several times in other threads can we get an answer to the question as to why we can't search the TF?  TIA

I've never been able to search the Team Forum. Last time I tried, i had to get a staff member to run the search for me - and they had no problems finding what I was looking for.

The google spider bot should get an arfcom membership, then it would searchable.
