Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12)

Namely get rid off the following.

"The following words in your search query were ignored because they are too common words"

I say this because I now realize why people make the mistake of repeating threads multiple times.

server
name
staff
another
character
play
pvp
raid
bug
help
thread
banned
population
class
horde
alliance

Are all unsearchable, and it doesn't matter if you are only searching in thread titles only either. This is especially frustrating when trying to find a thread you say earlier but didn't post in. As you can see the above words are all very common, but that doesn't mean it is pointless to search for them.

Best way is just to use google. Pretty sure you'd have to remove the entire "plain words" stripping out of the search from whatever forum software Nostal uses (MyBB?).

Thank you, I had used google to find a few of the threads. However using it brought up another issue.

All threads appearing as "Nostalrius Begins - Quality wow vanilla realm (1.12) • View topic" instead of showing the titles of threads. I know this is an issue with their forum's setup, though not sure how it would be changed or if it is a simple fix.

Yeah, the title of the page is too long for the search so it's irrelevant unless there's a way to get a full title in each header. It's best to look at the description of rather than the title on this matter.

Simple fix is literally killing redundancy and a bloated description in the forumhome title. Replace the title with "Nostalrius - View topic: $threadtitle"

Would love to see this happen.

Can't search "multiboxing"

I have this feeling they would rather work on the main page than the forum's functions. Good suggestions and all, but I'd stick to google or bing.
