Is there a way to do a search on a specific topic. particularly 153 page "Teach to Fish" topic? |

It's pretty hard to get a good search going on in there, especially considering that there are like four or five 150+ page build topics, compounded by the fact the search term you enter is highlighted in a horrific yellow box that is near impossible to see text through. I believe a build forum, not too dissimilar from the current lore forum we have, has been suggested before and shot down hardcore. Basically you just have to ask your build question, regardless if it's been asked before. Probably keeps everybody on their toes, not necessarily a bad thing. |

Another search question... is it possible to search for occurrences of a whole phrase, rather than individual words? Like for example, if I enter the phrase "gold dragon" into the search field, it returns all posts which contain both the word "gold" and the word "dragon," without regard to whether they appear adjacent to each other. How can I refine that to disregard all the posts that mention either gold or dragons without mentioning "gold dragon" as a whole phrase? Other search engines call that function by containing the search phrase in quote marks, but that doesn't seem to work here. |

It has to do with how the search function is set up in the coding of the boards so sadly no. However I will share a trick with you! Type this into Google Code: "golden dragon" site:http://www.amiaworld.net/
