Subject: Whatever happened to "Searchbar?"

You know, when people would simply post "searchbar" on a generic topic.
It was the best type of spam, or least bad type of spam.

I don't know, but I think it represented the golden age of Bungie.net

A time when people actually cared whether a topic had been repeated 20 times in the last 24 hours.

Hey, now!

This is officially either the greatest or worst thing to ever happen to Star Wars. I'm going with the former.

I think it was the fact that people were getting banned for it that stopped it.

The word "searchbar" returned more results in the searchbar than the topic it was directed at.
I didn't like it at all, it was worse than "cool story bro".

Hey guys, have you heard about Battlefield 3?

  • 10.19.2011 5:48 PM PDT

Hey guys, have you heard about Halo Reach? I think it's Bungie's new game.

The searchbar joke, is from that era. And that era is gone.

Key

He current search bar function effectively works like so: type in whatever you want, then sort through a pile of random posts you weren't lookin for until you give up.

I'll have the roast duck . . . with the mango salsa.

Screw the searchbar. It was the only reason I was EVER "warned" by a "mod" in the last 9 years. Three searchbar jokes and I loose Exalted status. Lame.

I wear the cheese, it does not wear me.

This account is now retired due to WLID changing. Webteam needs to fix that, seriously >.>

I think it's a time capsule, because it usually only finds threads that are half a year to several years old relating to the search criteria entered.
