-Removed-Firstly, don't worry, all content is still available and has not been removed.
The search in its previous form had to go, it was not particularly powerful and total performance hog of our server resources. It will be replaced once an alternative has been implemented.
Even the current embedded Google site search service is about to be dropped, so that will go to shortly too.
So, for now, I can suggest this. Just use vanilla Google like this :
site:redhotpawn.com divegeester "General Forum"
Obviously, after "site:redhotpawn.com", you can search for whatever you wish, but you may find it useful until a proper solution is implemented. At least it will reassure you that all the content is still there and accessible.

Will the new search facility actually search the database?

You know what Google is/how it works, right?
Originally posted by @suzianneI have a reasonable idea of how google works. Based on things you've posted in the past, I'd guess that I have a better idea of the implications of that than you do.

Tell you what. Try a little experiment.
Look at the quote box at the end of my post.
Try to pull it up via the url. It finds it.
Then try to find it via Google using the following text:
"Christianity is about the mythology"
Google doesn't find it. Why do you think that is?
BTW, there's a chance that Google could have added it to its index after I pulled it up. But it probably isn't very likely.
Of course they disagree with me. Christianity was built upon the words of Paul and his followers rather than the words of Jesus.
Christianity is about the mythology wrapped around the words of Jesus. From what you've written on this forum, it seems that you have trouble buying into the mythology. It seems you find the mythology "absurd". I don't blame you for finding it so. It doesn't hold up to scrutiny.
