No results found, no matter the search term, like CBA, SGA, Curry, etc.

We are working to restore the search as soon as possible. The forum is currently under a huge amount of additional load due to bot scraping (about a 700% increase in the last 20 days). The search had to be temporarily disabled while a solution is implemented to combat the issue.

Just confirming this is still the case for forum searches and “search my posts” function.

This should be working again soon, search taxes the servers a lot and we need to be careful about re-enabling it.

Is this also why I still get the "site is not safe" browser message? It's been months, it's a little bit frustrating, also because the site randomly just crashes nearly every time I'm trying to post (Edge browser). I understand it's a free website, but not really, since there are ads. I hope you guys find a solution soon, and thank you for the work that you do!

No, this is not why. I am sorry but I am the server/forum admin and I can't answer as to the ads that are placed on this website. I am contracted by RealGM to manage the infrastructure, not the content on the forum.

Not working for me again. Being to bump The Jalen Damnson GB thread for hours in honour of The Knicks making the finals, no luck finding it

Its not a really big deal in the grand scheme of things, least the forum.is running smoother than thiz time last year.
