Seemed to be fine. This is a brand new problem. Now the search function has gone from a working state to being completely broken with the only search result being "connection to 65.60.41.218:9312 failed (errno=110, msg=Connection timed out)".

Also, up until yesterday, you could go to someone's profile and click on "Find latest started threads" and it would display the threads that that member started. I used that feature a week ago for my own profile when I was searching for a thread that I started quite a while ago and it listed (as far as I could tell) every thread I ever started here. Now, today, it only yields "connection to 65.60.41.218:9312 failed (errno=110, msg=Connection timed out)". AB, I know it wasn't perfect, but can you please ask Steven to at least get the search feature back to the way it was before yesterday when it was still yielding good results?
Agree with everything said here. I have been using the local search feature extensively to good effect. I second the request to the board admin to get it working again.
