Very often when I'm doing a thread search, I know what topic I'm looking for. The problem is many searches bring up too many results. Would it be possible to make the search capable of being Forum specific. i.e. Only search in "News" or "General" or "Trip" etc.
Something else that would be nice, would be the ability to just search the thread name. For example, if I do a search on "Cedar Point announces Maverick", I'll get any thread that has all of those words. Another possible solution could be like how many search engines allow for a search to be narrowed by adding quotes around your search terms. That way it has to find all of those words together and in order"
Just a few ideas. What we have now is way better than what we had before. I'm just offering some suggestions for further improvement.

Yeah, those are good suggestions. The search system is in dire need of an overhaul because it doesn't scale very well. As it's the most complicated piece, it probably won't change until the next version, and I'll try not to let it go for years without this time. :)
