Some sort of search engine for GEs?

and the vbulletin search thing isn't very effective. It just shows you what threads mention have those words in them, together or not... :/ The words "Bengal Tiger PSI" in the search engine will show you a billion threads that would take FOREVER to sort through!

I agree, thanks for posting!

Good suggestion though

I think you would understand if you were gifted... It is very much needed.
Main reasons for wanting an item are decorating, collecting (ex: some collect all the cars), etc
I do not like using the trading room because everything must be done on the spot, no time to think it over. Most all people do not make fair trades according to the WIGEV, and you are often scammed and people say hurtful things there. I only go to the TR to get coupons, things like that.
More people are on WI at once. GEs, you can browse them and express interest even when someone is not present, but the TR is hit or miss.
Thanks for stating your opinion, though.

This is a good idea, except you can search that particular section.

I did state that in the first post, however when you search the section it pulls up ALL threads that contain one or more of those words anywhere in the thread, not necesarilly the first post or their haves.

I think if you really want the item, you should be willing to search hard for it..
Sorry, I think that feature is good enough, and I don't think we need to add this.

There already is a very easy solution to this problem, and it works VERY well. Open up Search in the banner, type in the item that you're looking for, then click on "Show Posts" (the default is Show Threads, which gives you problems). With Show Posts, you'll spot your item right away. Try it! It works!
