    • What happened to the "search" link?


      I think I've noticed this on other boards too...but...maybe it's just me...has the "search" link moved??

      I thought it used to be the last link here :
      profile | register | members | preferences | faq

      hmmmm......

      ------------------

    • Due to people getting wiretap, I think its been disabled for a short time.

      It most certainly is.

      Nothing.

      Except that the search feature uses a lot of resources and it was making the ftp server crawl. Throw in the release of wiretap where many people were trying to download it, and things got bad for a while. So the search feature was disabled to allow people to download the product. And, let's face it, ASW products have a higher priority than the web boards. 😉

      The search feature will return shortly I expect.

      Do you have any idea at all when "shortly" will be? I do so miss the search feature as I tend to forget things and find the board a valuable resource when I'm playing. And I'd hate to go thru page after page and/or re-post a question I know was here. Guess I should have cut-n-pasted everthing of importance to me when I had the chance. :frown: Or maybe I should just savor the joy of "re-discovery"!!!

      I'm usually the only one that thinks I'm going nuts...just to find out I already am 🙂

      Unfortunately, no.

      Shortly is, unfortunately, a relative term. 5 minutes is a short time compared to an hour. A year is short compared to 20 years. Etc.

      Hopefully it will be a matter of weeks. But this is all speculation.

      I suppose it is safe to assume that the latest we will have this feature re-enabled is when all of the 9,500+ members of this webboard and many others have downloaded it. Judging how quickly the word "free" spreads, I should agree, maybe a matter of weeks.
      I was going to try to search for an answer to a question involving your plugin, Sapphire, because I can't seem to kill the blue dragon, because it heals itself constantly, and does not run out of potions, as far as I can tell. Any suggestions?

      The plugin is by Victor M. Cardoso and has been out for about two years. It was the first quest-oriented plugin to my knowledge. The best way to take out the blue dragon is to have a very strong character who can knock him down in one or two blows. I have also bested him with a relatively weak character which doesn't seem to get his health potions flowing. Plugin developers have discovered a bug which is if you place a healing potion in the NPC's inventory it does not get used up the way it would for the playing character. And if the NPC senses that healing is necessary, the NPC goes on a healing binge which is unstoppable.

      BTW, you would have been better off to start a new thread about this. Others may want to contribute and the topic of "search link" may be ignored now. ~RD

      Walk up to him and whack him. He doesn't seem to attack while he's in that mode.
