search problems

ok i don't know if it's just me, but i think there is a major problem with search feature on this site. i was trying to find a post about back of beyond climb in bc. after typing name it brought pages of usless crap, like tr's from bc, rockies and all sort of crap.

like i stated before, we need a separate part for new routes. information gets lost in the river of useless spray. i consider 95% of tr's as spray, as they are about routes already described in multiple guide books.

GGK,

 

I agree that the search function on this website isn't that great, but here is how to get it to work.

 

If you type "+Back +Beyond +Buttress" into the search window and select "main posts only" you will get good results. You can narrow your search even further by selecting "British Columbia" forum and specifying a date range, but it isn't necessary.

 

Using the "+" before each word requires that ALL THREE of those words must be in the post. If you don't have the "+" there, then all posts with ANY of those words in them will be found.

Here are the advanced search tips translated into Rogoz:

 

Use a motherfuckin' PLUS KEYWORD you windowlickink mouth breather. If you can wipe the salty-GU off your palm long enough to get the plus key unstuck, and stop felching your dead grandma. In Europe we would crush weak bumble-nuts like you with multiple 14d and m12+ onsights.

If you click on the Trip Report Index title in the top menu bar (or follow this link:

http://www.cascadeclimbers.com/threadz/tripreports.php?Cat=0 )

 

it will open the Trip Report Index with some search fields at the top. Fill in your info etc. and click Filter and it will sort ONLY through the trip reports, not through the entire post database.

 

Not all TRs that were posted before the TR Index was created have been indexed yet - the mods have to enter these one by one and it's a big job. If you find an old one that is not indexed yet notify the relevant mod to get it added.

So a TR should not be posted and has no value unless it is from a hardman putting up a new route?

 

Whatever. rolleyes.gif

hey, just chill. if i want a route description i will open a guide book and read it, without all the side bullshit. the shitty thing about web sites like this is- they are a good way to kill some time at your useless desk job while you are daydreaming about you next adventure punching your clown to some mountain porn and shunking a shelaque syrup load onto your screen. tr's are spray

The point of a trip report isn't to document a route; I think anyone who wants to can find half a dozen guides with route descriptions of, say, the Sloan Peak corkscrew route.

What you CAN'T get from Beckey or Nelson is what the route is like currently, or if there's an access problem (the log over the river is washed out) or that sort of thing.

Clearly a lot of people DON'T post TRs, because they get called for spraying. I'd prefer more TRs. If you don't like 'em, don't read 'em (like summit logs!)

guys- penis size problems? you are right- i don't read tr's. first off all shortage of time (today i am spraying since i am down with cold). second- some of them would get F even in a basic ESL class. third- it's more fun to go and find out for yourself.

it's like reading review of a movie or watching it. everyone is in title to his/hers opinion. but remember- it's just an opinion. so wtf people are getting so worked up on this board when calling tr's spray?

is your dick so small you can't take a hint of criticism wanker? pathetic- really pathetic

I'd rather read some well-written spray than a move by move description with photos of Distel's latest Mongolian pebble project.

 

I've been waiting for this one to get dragged into the spray forum boxing_smiley.gif

 

PHukkin A.

 

I have to be completely honest when I say --> What a fuckin whiner Rogoz.

 

Get off your ass and on the phone with your butt buddy Sprayton and get the beta in person. WTF do you need to come here for? He sprayed 15 pages on every route he did in life making him sound like he climbed k2 in 24 hours with one leg and one arm naked each time. I am sure you will find it if you really want to.

 

Second - I did search just like someone said and guess what - it fucking worked. No advanced features at all. You can't complain if it's wankfest user error.

This was a pretty good impression.
