They've been working on one for a while.

When I say they, I'm referring to the webteam, comprised of Achronos and whoever else he works with. They don't mention much about the other guys.

i think bungie should make a search bar for the forums so you can find your thread you made. i made a "bring clanmatches back" and it had a poll on it, and i wanted to see how many people wanted clanmatches back and i lost it.

Do you understand the vastness of B.net? There are over 1.9 million registered users...half of which log on everyday. About 1/2 or more post new threads everyday, and more than one.

So you are talking about dealing with 4 million + posts/topics a day...do you know how much that amounts to over a few years?

I think Achronos knows what he is doing and talking about, he is certainly more knowledged and more qualified than you or me or most of the members here on Bungie.net.

Yes, but that Search would probably not perform that well. The search needs to be able to find what people want, and it has to do that without effecting the performance of the site. I think that making a search that performs the first task with good accuracy and also doesn't degrade the performance of Bungie.net may be a bit more complicated than most people realize.

That is what I said...there is a reason was hired straight from College to Bungie to work on the site...and that is because he knows what he is doing.
