Hello moderators and experienced members. I have been looking through the many threads in various forums and I would like to know if there is a way to search by keyword or something to get all of the pertinent threads together. I get a feeling by some comments on other threads that members get frustrated with repeated questions about topics scattered throughout forums. After looking a 76 pages of topics I am certain to have missed a thread or two and will ask a question that will hack somebody off. For instance the topic of S10 spindles and C5 brakes, luckily only 5 pages, but you almost have to read every thread that mentions disc brakes....
Maybe I am just being lazy...if tell me to go get a Starbucks or something!!!

Have you not been using SEARCH? you can select "search for all terms" and even select a specific forum. use the links either at the top of the page in the forums, or at the bottom of the "recent forum posts" box on the homepage

I don't know if this has happened to just me, or maybe it is/was something specific to just my browser, but on more than one occasion, I have used the "Search" option only to have it come back and tell me, "this subject no longer available."

I didn't know if that meant it was wwwaaayyy to old, or ? ? ? ? but it has happened more than once. Is it something I did wrong in the search?

A little over a year ago the site got hacked and some things were lost. It could be those posts were not recovered.
