The search is effing useless

does it really take that much effort to read the thread topics or refine your search by a different method?

The problem may lie between the keyboard and the seat.

Did you try advanced search only search for threads with your search in the title?

Premiers get the good search. Like Kanye said "welcome to the good search" or was it good life?
Oh well you get it.

Next time, search with show posts instead so you don't waste time going through a 20-page thread with only 1 post containing the keywords.

I just did a "caliper color" search and it works like a charm.
