[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Does it have to do with the new secure site? I get different search results when searching with https and then just http after getting only recent threads in the results. Thanks for looking into this, I know everyone complains about the search function here but it usually works just fine for me.[/quote]

Despite DCUM being a fairly small site in the context of the entire Internet, I use about 8 servers to run the whole thing. Two of them run the forum software and I replaced those two over the last two weeks. I decided to completely rebuild the search indexes on the new hardware. This worked without a hitch on the first server, but the second one indexed very slowly. As a result, any users that were on the second server could only do very limited searches. Today I took the second server out of production, made some tweaks, and rebuilt the search indexes again. I was able to get it to index fairly quickly and it was able to complete the entire rebuild. So, now both servers should be able to do full searches.
