Search tool Threadloom: I don't get it

[Alkali Ike]

Am I the only person here who can *never* find what I'm looking for with the forum's new-ish Threadloom search tool? Its search results are completely baffling and never what I'm looking for, even after I spend a minute trying to parse its confusing results. Do I need to take an online course Threadloom 101 or something?

Just wondering if anyone else is having problems with it too.

Edited to add Threadloom's search results for "ozark" in General, Off Topic.

Getting the same thing - and if you scroll further, there are images that are broken as well related to Threadloom itself... Looks like it's blown CSS or something. Surprised no one's seen this yet, it's been happening for quite some time now.

I never use the search tool here. Go to Google and type Talkbass and then whatever you're looking for. Much better results.

Got it. Looks like it's related to what "style" you decided to use TB.com as - go to your profile and select "preferences" - choose "TalkBass 2014" and the search results show just fine:

Looks like it's something blown with the combo of "default" CSS and the threadloom embedded searches. Not a huge fan of the 2014 theme, but at least it makes the searches usable again...
