Member search function - The member list is huge

viper2040 · 01-15-2003, 11:07 AM

if i want to find someones contact info, i have to either look for a topic or post by them, or i have to search page by page through the member list. This may not seem like a big thing, or something important, but it cant be that hard to put in, and it would save SO much time--it probably takes longer to find a member now than it would take to make the search function.

What do you guys think? and please, dont just post "what? i dont get it"

What?..I dont get it (I'am kidding :alien: )..yeah it could be helpful after all there is one big list of members here..

Kingryu1 · 01-15-2003, 02:51 PM

and only bout 1/5 of them are active. prolly not even 1/5 ???

<font color="blue">I thought their was a search engine. Do you mean just to find the member info?

viper2040 · 01-15-2003, 06:35 PM

yes--just for finding a member, in the memberlist

BitXero · 01-15-2003, 06:55 PM

That would be pretty helpful

XCloudX · 01-15-2003, 07:39 PM

i guess that would be pretty cool

haolys · 01-15-2003, 08:41 PM

you GUESS it would be cool? it would be PRETTY helpful? have you ever tried to find info on a member whose name starts with a letter that isn't at the ends of the alphabet? it takes like 15 minutes to get to the middle of the list

it would be a quantum leap from the system we have working now. i want to see it done.... if TMyApp has time for it, of course. he does so much for us already. i'd hate to see him overworked so he can get BITCHED at by little newcomers and old power hungry pricks. so i don't want anyone to start flappin their gums about how TMyApp could do this so easily and crap like that.

i haven't seen any yet so i'm proud of you guys. but surely enough an inexperienced newcower or an old conflict hunter will come around to this thread. i hate it when it comes to that.
