Seach Engine Questions

Hi, as most of the mods will know, I've my earned my FTR search engine frequent flier miles. I wonder if any of the following are possible?

1. Search for two or more authors in same thread. Suppose you remember Massimo and ISF were discussing something, but don't really remember who started the thread and can't remember the exact words enough to nail it with the keyword search. If we could quickly popup all threads both guys posted in, it would be cool.

2. Search for keyword AND author simultaneously. Say I know fnord had a post that said "monkey checked to, monkey bets." If I search "monkey AND checked AND fnord," I get the posts where people quote fnord, which of course leaves out ones where's not quoted at all or where the quote wasn't from the same thread as the OP. Also, one could do a "I wonder what ISF thinks about 4bets" search.

I think I've found every possible way to troll for vintage threads under the current search capabilities (including using google, with domain restricted to FTR). But if these additional search capabilities were EASY to program, it would be a big improvement, imo.

Thanks.

i just use google, I really cannot stand our search

@Bigspenda73: same thing with me
