Alright VitalMX, it's 2020 and the search feature on your site sucks big ones....
How many of you have tried to search for an old thread and just gave up because your search leads to nowhere? Do we need to put together a VitalMX gofundme page to activate this feature?
Here's what I get when I search for "Barcia":

Poll
The first few results that you posted are paid ad space, not going to get rid of those spots.
What works good though is to use Google. Just type in "barcia vitalmx" and you should get what you're looking for.
The Shop
If you want to see a clean, easy to use forum and search feature take some time and review this forum. There isn’t an abundance of ads and the search feature searches for that lone forum. Not the whole damn internet.
See, an easy search feature with one ad that’s not a garbled mess and also an advanced search if you need it. Not hard
There is some really great information on here. But it is extremely hard to find.
Pit Row
I’m sure the people that search for old threads is just to find something to prove someone wrong
You should be able to search for "2002 yz250 jetting" in just the tech help sub-forum.
Or search "yz250" or "alpinestars 10" in the for sale sub-forum and sort by date so you can see the ones listed this week not 2 years ago.
I've also tried to search for thread in Bike Builds or Old School Moto that have information on specific bikes for restoration, parts, and modifications.
In Moto related most recently I was searching for a helmet thread where helmets were being discussed.
It can be a very useful tool that can provide you or others some great information when you need it, but it's non existent on Vital. Hopefully they can integrate it in the future.
If anyone is familiar with this thread or can find it I would greatly appreciate a link.
