auto-search

this might have been suggested, but iused theses keywords to look. auto search post thread start. u should make it where when u start a thread, u have to type the name in first, then it automaticly searches for the title as keywords, then u have to read the posts to see if any are what your posting. if its mroe than like 5-10 posts, u only see adn have to read 5-10 of the closes matching ones.

This would just make it MORE confusing.

People don't name there topics the exact same thing, and if you name it something out of the ordinary, you're going to see "Hey, this hasn't been posted before!"


It's just going to make people think it hasn't been posted when they come up with original thread names...


Edit: That's assuming you're using your title of the thread. For info in the post, pft, HF with that. 12,457,329 matches with the word "The".

i agree with enfeebleness

then make it where u have to type in keywords, tehn it makes automaticly posts those keywords in the post in un-deleteable text, and if it makes teh keywords make no sense... the post can get deleted. adn teh keywords can't be, the,an and those sort of things.

You still have a problem with original titles, and a problem with too many topics out now with general names. Say you find a new path in Hyjal that helps you get to a new place, so your keyword is Hyjal.


Except you're going to be seeing posts about how to get to Hyjal, things about the instance in Hyjal, information on Hyjal.........

This wouldn't be very useful for the exact reason enfeebleness posted.

kinda a cool idea but as enfeeblness said its like
it will read The And all those words so...thnks for posting but it wont work unless Matt can get it fully Fuctional so it will read only words like with 4 or more leters in it or sometihing

[Nimaasuss]

kinda cool but it would make things complicated

[wrn1113]

it was worth a try, it would take work to amke it work, and it would be hard. no reason to try it out now that u point out all teh problems like that. if i think of a way to make it work, ill post it. thnx for hte input
