Is only me who feels like this?

I was trying to find how to detect a HLDS is closed by some keywords:
server close, server end, server disconnect

The result ends like this: https://forums.alliedmods.net/search.php?do=process

I can't find my aim

Try with "*server close*" (without quotes).

there is a bug, I already noticed it in 2013. it forces me to use some other keywords even if previous ones were correct.

it should work even if you don't remove the quotes (quotation marks or brackets), just that the keywords will not be shown in red iirc.

Your search tutorial thread should be sticky. Unfortunately, still the result is https://forums.alliedmods.net/search.php?do=process

NB: Searched by keyword
*server* *close* *server close* "server close" "*server close*" server* close*

*server* *close* *server close* "server close" "*server close*" server* close*
  • a single keyword is better for a good search, even if the result may be huge.
  • please don't use the asterisk randomly, it's only used to replace unknown keyword's parts:
    • the keyword server* allows you (theorically) to find everything starting by "server" like: server, servers, serverside, serverstuff, etc.
    • the keyword *server is its contrary, for everything finishing by server like server, myserver, stupidserver, etc.
    • this one *server* is for both of the previous cases: server, myserver, serverside, myserverside, etc.

Okay, will try with server*, *server, and *server* once again.

EDIT: YAY! It works! It works in advanced search, not the quick search ones. ANTICHRISTUS is a search machine.
