Seriously, what's up with HC?

[circusinthesky]

Why is it that, when I click on this....



it takes me to this....



Just some generic page, and not a single reference to the review I was expecting.

did you scroll down?

Yep. Still nada.

The actual URL it takes me to is...

http://www.harmonycentral.com/products

Products is pretty generic.

[whiteop]

they probably banned all the remaining members...

For any interested, this worked in google....

Just type "Catalinbread" into the Filter By Brand field. A drop down list should appear as you're typing, select the brand you wanted. All their product reviews will appear below. Click on the item you want to view reviews for.

I guess I will have to resign myself to the fact that every single person who is pissed off at HC will have to start a seperate thread to express their displeasure.

Here's a hint.

The search function here WORKS!!!

Really? Try searching for an SG in the emporium.

Oh, and sorry to have wasted your time.

No problem. Continue to piss and moan. Remember HC 6 days ago? NO search function, whatsoever. Appreciate what you've got here.

Stop whining like a six year old and learn how to enter "Gibson SG" into your your search.

Criminy.

Your brain. Use it.

Your meds. Take them.

I thought the previous layout of the HC site was, regardless of the search function, more logical. Although, admittedly, I was more familiar with it. The fact that google isn't able to locate pages is a problem, although that may be a cache issue.

I still find the search functions here a bit archaic, and your little name calling tantrum isn't really going to change my opinion. Additionally, you're more than welcome to NOT read topics that don't interest you. Let's face it, your entire input was in no manner useful. And, you might say the same about my post, but again, no one forced you to read it.

Search terms are limited to 4 characters because the indexing required for 2-3 letter/number searches on the forum software (vBulletin) would be too costly/intensive. Meaning, TGP would have to raise more money to operate the site via increased numbers/prices of memberships or allow advertising.

So you've got to pick your battles, and you've got to pick some number where to cut off indexing.
The admins picked 4 characters for search indexing.

The search function works fine, regardless.

Here on TGP...if you want to search on less than 4 characters, just use the
http://www.thegearpage.net/board/search.php

and choose "search forums using Google"...

I tend to use the built-in search when over 4 because it is quicker and easier, but otherwise the Google is fine.
also you can search for "Gibson SG" in quotes, etc.

HC shot itself in the foot...well...the mouth, rather.

[harryjmic]

I have since deleted HC from my favorites list and wont go back unless they switch it back.

TGP is my home now.

Shame about HC, I got my feet wet with music forums there.
