There is one generic search box at the top for everything. Say you want to search for a user. You have to type the user in - it takes you to a general forum search page, which doesn't do anything for you. Then you have to click Users and wait for that search to run. Then you get a very general search which has no parameters and is not accurate. For example:
This search should pull me up as the first hit. Or I should have the option to make an exact name search. But I don't see that anywhere.
Another point - there should be a direct link to the advanced search page rather than having to search, and then search again.
to get to the page, you don't have to actually search anything. you can just hit the search button and it takes you to the search page.
the first thing i did was search your name with the same results.
also, i searched "halo" and my 2o2phalo didn't come up. halo is in our clan description. i don't remember who, but another clan with halo in thier description did come up. even when i specified "groups" for the search.
also including any type of search box at all
the search bar is in the very top right corner of every page.
as far as a member list, i've only seen that for the groups you belong to. its on the right side of the page when you go to "you account"
also, you can search for users in the "advanced" options of the search page.
This.
Couple points about searches.
