Finding signature sources
Is there any way to exclude people's signatures from results when searching the forum for a phrase (such as finding the original source quoted)?

Having just tested that, I can confirm that it is false. Still just get every thread the person ever posted in.

Wut? Here, I'm going to find the post that contains your sig.
Keywords: Kaelik and gonna and Whatcha
Display results as: Posts
Search found 8 matches. In this case, the source of the sig is the last, and the other seven seem to be people mentioning the sig. If you knew the author of the sig (as we do in this case), you could narrow the results further, but I left the field blank because it's a better demonstration of utility.
I think the problem is that TGD searching is not like any other search anyone's used to. If you want to match all of a list of keywords, you have to put and between them.

You know what, I was using the search bar right at the fucking top, not the tiny word search in the profile area. Carry on, I have a bag of cocks to suck.DSMatticus wrote:Wut? Here, I'm going to find the post that contains your sig.
