I looked at the FAQ and this isnt addressed. I can't even look past page 1 of my own posts.
What gives?

It's because it causes the whole site to crash/run slow whenever somebody uses it. So the admin turned it off a long time ago. I guess you can just try Google if you want to search for your posts.

What's that thing on the wall behind you? Oh right, that's your mind.

Is this true? If so, I'd love for this to be fixed.
I miss the old system, where I could click on a good poster, and see what he has to say, in chronological order, at various forums within RealGM.
I miss being able to pm members as well. I understand it might be more difficult for mods, but RealGM is a discussion group to being with, and we're already talking with each other using message boards. However, some discussion can, and should, be private, and I'd like to see management reconsider the decision to remove pm's between members.

So when will this site stop using such an antiquated and limited system? You would save a lot more money on an efficient and scalable board system like vBulletin with the search function turned on. Part of the reason for so may repetitive threads is because people can not search.

Really? I blame sheer laziness and ignorance. In most cases duplicate threads are posted mere hours or minutes from each other.

I hope "incredibly stupid handicap" is not a self deprecating comment...
Often I'll use google - it helps as long as you can remember the thread title of jist of the thread. Other than that you can sift through your own post history.
