REQ: Can you use relevant keywords in your topic? Pretty please.

[Qacer]

Hi all,

I would like to request for each member to add relevant keywords to their topics. It sure as hell makes searching for interesting ones easier. For instance, I was trying to show a yellow corvette racing video I saw earlier to my friends. I tried typing corvette, vette, racing, etc. , but did not find it.


Thanks!

I'm sure everyone will be more than willing to comply with your request, oh great one.

I searched for vette in the title of all Off Topic threads and found 6 threads, have you checked all of those?

threads are lahk a box of chocolates...

Isn't it more fun to guess what's inside a thread titled "OMFG!!!! I Don't Believe This!" than to know in advance that the person just got a parking ticket or had a really nice sno-cone?

 

[Qacer]

Heh..

Anyway, I did try viewing all the corvette threads that showed up. I still could not find the video.

 

[Thegonagle]

Try the keyword "OMG."

His issue is that he fears the repost police. Hence my advice is tell 'em to ah heck off BTW you should learn to use the search function correctly

Hey scuttle,

Thanks, but that wasn't it. I believe it was a yellow corvette. The guy in another turbo charged car was video taping it. The corvette owner decided to show them a thing or two about the real deal.

Sounds reasonable. Anyone who can't comply with this simple request, we'll all just ignore their threads.

That's a mustang thread, not a corvette thread

 

[Qacer]

Hey Maleficus,

Thanks! That was the video I was looking for.

Yeah, but then every topic would begin with NEF, and what good would that do in searching?
