Although does anyone else get that error message or is it just me?! never thought of that oh really? my bad i guess i didnt see the post about it ~_~ nevermind then Last edited by Kittycat101 at 2:19 am, Jun 13 ________________ "Man, because he sacrifices his health in order to make money.

But it's not that bad. And hopefully Manick will get this up and running some time soon. So no, it's not just you, and other people might think it's broken that's normal because it really is broken. Just not totally broken. ________________ So predictable...

It's just the currently nerfed global search, and it's still "broken" compared to when it was not broken/disabled. Don't think too much of it for now, it'll be re-activated when they get to it. ________________

The original problem was that so many people used the global search that the server was under too much load... >< So we decided to just disable it to save the server ________________ A just ruler amongst tyrants lambchopsil--- MangaUpdates admin Join the MangaUpdates Folding@Home team!

It might mean a bit more scrolling for the other links there though.
