How much have you got? You can PM the bank details.
<_<

From a personal perspective: 50e would get search back for your account + other perks for 1 year.

HDX, you should talk to the Organ Grinders, not the monkeys. PM Regi, Vexorg Cloud Ecksor or me because noone else here has any right to speak on behalf of Boards.ie

Hiya HDX

Your offer is very much appreciated, but on one of the many search related threads recently

Regi wrote:

Search will be back when other things are worked out. Subscribers, advertising or money isn't the reason

Thats not to say that your kind offer cant or wont be used to further everyones enjoyment of boards, if it can be put to use in the short term, we will be right back to you:)

From what I've read on another BB it seems to be a basic design flaw with vBulletin, especially on very large sites.

I thought it was kinda funny.

If you are trying to get rid of some money these nice people always appreciate it!

Obviously your money your choice, what a nice offer to make regardless. Boardsies can be nice people too:)

I'm guessing that the secret missing ingredient is time. Unfortunately, it's quite impossible to buy time, unless someone wants to pay the salary of a worldwide megastar sysadmin (read: Regi) for the next two years.

I think there are some folks on the vbulletin.org forums who do little nixers like hacks etc for a few shillings. I don't know but maybe they could sort the search out too? Or the vbulletin.com support should help too

I think the search is an essential part of this site, for me, I'd much rather have slowdown than no search.

Do all subscribers get to use the full search function? I'll subscribe as soon as I have some disposable income. Maybe some day:o
