I have noticed that this website has been loading much faster the last few days, than in the past. Whatever the reason, good job.

A little off topic, but if anyone needs to search a certain topic, thread, or specific post, the search feature here is abysmal. Use Google. I tried multiple times with different search words to find a post I made last year. After a half hour I gave up. I tried Google, it took less than 10 seconds and the thread I was looking for was the first hit.

LJBraaten,
Interesting...I just tried to find my thread concerning the embouchure brace I created. First, I used the BB search engine and inputted "embouchure brace". I clicked Enter and only one thread showed up and it wasn't mine. (I believe I've mentioned my embouchure brace at least 4 or 5 times in various threads.)
Next, I used my personal search engine, Startpage, and inputted...clarinet "embouchure brace". Startpage found my thread and it was at the very top.
I like using the BB search engine but, I must admit, it can, at times, be rather frustrating.
I believe almost all of the inserted BB threads in my postings come from my personal search engine.
I'm not sure how to resolve this problem...
p.s. I apologize for this OT response.

Actually - perhaps someone else can tell me if they're experiencing the same thing, but...for the last several months I've noticed that my searches only produce matches older than 1/1/2024 (at least when I arrange searches from newest to oldest).

Im pretty sure the feed to my ancient indexer is broken. The index was built before google was actually a thing (the indexer was in place before the Google ipo). I'll probably rip my indexer out.

I didn't notice that, but about half the times I come here I get a sort of "dead" page. It is still the clarinet board page, not an error page, but there are no posts, as if the list is there but empty. Is there a daily update or something that causes that? I usually come here at the same time in the morning for a few minutes and it's only back if I try again later that day.

Empty pages with no posts...I've had that for more than a few months. I kept blaming my computer. I did restarts, removed and reinstalled my Avast Anti-tracking software... I finally realized that if I went to a few other websites and then came back, most of the time the BB was then normal, but, sometimes hours had to pass by.
I thought I was the only one experiencing this.
