So basically I don't know if you can fix this but when I search for, idk, "Horror one-on-one" in the search discussions thing, it comes up with completely irrelevant things and it makes it really hard for me to find things. Also, is it normal I have to reload every time someone says something on a forum to see it? Idk

IDK about the search thing, but yes to the reloading every time someone says something. This isn't really an instant messaging site

I know, I'm not asking him to fix it but it would be nice

Yes, it would be lol

ikr

The search thing has to be like SUPER specific. I have an rp with my sister called ‘Ripe rip rp’, and whenever I search ‘ripe rip’ up, it’s the only one the pops up, but when I search VOTE (another one of my rps, but it isn’t the full title), I’ll get a lot of different options.

really?

Yeah, if you look up ‘ripe rip’ on the search, you’ll find my rp :)

i might

yeah

Yeah…. titles only would definitely be nice

You can narrow down your search a little by searching within a particular board. Like, you could go to the Fantasy Tavern board for roleplays and search 'horror' there, and that only brings up a couple of results. (However, if you do a search for 'character' in the Characters board, you'll get hundreds of results because that word appears so many times!)

you could have a bunch of options

Well, you could always search your character’s full name (for rps) (unless you use that character in tons of rps, but at least it narrows it down a bit)

Yeah…true. So it just depends on all the details, then?

Yeah, I think so

okay thanks now I can search and actually get what I want

When you find an rp you’re in that you want to get back to again later, you could edit one of your first posts to have a really unique/rare word in it, and that way when you search that word that rp will be one of the few options. I’ve done it to this post.

P.S. hippopotamus

nice :P
