the "too vaque" is better, but still essentially broken.
just tested.
many items still only show up if you type in the actual name (dont show up on pricerange search)
since most people i know browse rares using the high to low price option, its still pretty useless when very limited amount of items show up using search.
whats the point to search weight ???? to make pressure on the system for no reason ?
Using the word "weight" gives you everything on that shard. It is the one word that is found on every item. For people that visit shards it is an easy way to see what they have at a single glance.
I think all they did was allow the searches to take longer. And now with all the returning accounts people have put more things on vendors and now it is taking too long again, so we get the too vague instead of the correct reason, Search took too long.
8 years or so ago I remember reading that Google sold HW/SW search packages to businesses. I wonder if they still sell those types of systems and whether UO could adapt it to take over vendor search. I get the strong impression that the legacy stuff they trying to use now just isn't up to the task. I'm sure Oracle and other such companies offer the same, but if I were EA/Broadsword I'd go for the uber-tested and proven Google tech. Plus I remember the word "sold" as opposed to Oracle who would likely want a yearly license fee.

Fully patched and ran a "Perform full file check" on each before starting.
Standard EC and standard CC.
Search was ran at 12:25 GMT (07:25 EST) so not really even prime time I would of thought for Atlantic.

This is a nice feature that they should have running....la sigh.
