what sucks is the 50 result cap, it needs to be longer, like maybe 100 or 200 threads

search bar can be a bitch because it only recognizes threads with the exact word or words in it.
Like if you put in

Chad's Gap
it will only show threads like
"how do you get to Chad's Gap"
but not
"how do you get to chad gap"

or the fact that it only searches for thread titles, so when "clever" people make "clever" titles like "look at these boobs," for their thread on something completely unrelated, it is impossible to search for.
