    I find the search feature of PriusChat rather slow and limited, I normally use Google to search the forums. They're pretty well indexed by Google. Why not have a Google search box on the site, one that only searches within the site or even a particular forum? It might take some load off the PriusChat servers, and you get all the Google search capabilities for free (such as searching for a phrase).

    We used to have that, but it got amputated by one of the site crashes and never grew back.

    But I agree, I've almost given up completely with the PC search and just go to Google, use the "Advanced" option and search only Priuschat domain for what I want.

    Tip: you can do that without going to "advanced", by typing site:priuschat.com <some words or phrase> in the main Google search box, or your favorite Google search add-on.
