#1391, "Just a question about this site."


          

I am not certain where to post this question but I just ask it here.

I was wondering if there is any way a search could be set up for the Premium Graveyard. To search for certain names and/or search for race.

I wanted to look at some past gnome descriptions to get a decent idea of what the player base thinks one looks like and have to go through each character one by one just to check it out.

Just wondering if this could be done to the sight just to make things a little easier and I wouldn't mind looking up some of my past chracters by name just to read what they had again.

thanks

1. At the top of the forum listing, click on search.
2. Click on the link to use the "advanced search" form.
3. Under the advanced search form, select "Premium Battlefield" as the target forum.
4. Use the name or race of the character you want to look for as the keyword.

The one caveat is that if you search by race, you're not always guaranteed to get characters only of that race, but in my experience it limits the results well enough that you can usually find what you are looking for.

Cheers,
T

I've tried this, and it's not ideal. Searching by class is also hard. Dio's has a facility that links back to this site, but it isn't perfect either. A carrionfields.com-based faclity would be best, but it sounds like it might be alot of effort, in which case I suspect the staff's time could be better spent elsewhere.
