I wonder if anyone feels that my suggestion would be helpful too.
I was wondering if perhaps the search function could be altered a bit? Could it be changed to when you search for a term, just the individual posts come up? It is very difficult to wade through a thread that is 5 pages long with individual posts that are sometimes 3,000 words long to find where your term is listed.
Or perhaps as a different solution, when you search for a term, maybe they could somehow be highlighted for easier locating? Much like the search function of canlii?
I think many people have trouble with the search function here because it takes forever to find that one reply that has the word you are looking for and wading through irrelevant posts is time consuming.
Just a suggestion. Or maybe someone else can think of something better than that.
