What really pisses me off is the amount for threads about this problem and not one reply or comment from someone that manages this site. It a feeking disgrace

That and the unwelcome addition of tracking cookies to the site

You can tell the site is now commercial.

I use the search function a lot and amongst the lack of changes to this site, I am starting to get hacked off

No real reason to pay for the full search feature now either. Site is commercial.....the reason to pay before was to ensure some income for the upkeep of the site. I don't think that this remains a valid argument
