I am having a problem using the search feature for a lot of things in the D2R/D2 forums. it seems if I put in anything like "lightning life gc" I see mass trade lists of people selling aldur's boots for 1 fg among hundreds of other items unrelated to my search. It clutters the search and I can never find what I'm actually looking for because there are just so many big spam trade lists.

would it be possible to add a feature that adds an option to ignore/hide thread results that have more than "X" amount of characters? for instance it could say, "Hide threads with over 500 characters" or something. basically if the thread has hundreds of items, it will not appear on the search results if you select this option.

that would really help clean up the search results and make it so maybe people can actually find what they looking for? Is this a good idea or is there any reason it's a bad idea?

Are you suggesting something similar to this?

yes similar suggestion to that, but instead of blocking threads individually just outright click a box that says to hide threads that have mass text / characters. i think it would simplify the issue and pretty much solve it altogether maybe.

This is actually a good idea, glad I’m not the only one with this struggle

The search feature feels near useless to me cos people are just posting their entire accounts of junk and the tag happens to be somewhere in that list of a million garbage items.

You should add a poll, gets a yes from me, this is especially relevant in d2r section

dang i probably should have done that idk if its possible to add a poll now i think if i try to it'll make a new thread but i dont know for sure. at least i know im not the only one really bothered by not being able to find anything lol

i still hope this idea can be considered and maybe utilized, i think it would really help and i dont think it would be really hard to impliment
