    Many People have said they have searched and said they couldn't find anything, so I'll be making a quick tutorial so you know how to.


    First, go to forum section you wish to post in.

    Second, go to Top Right side of the forums.

    Third, below your name, you should see a box that has Search in it. Click on it.

    Fourth, type whatever you are searching for in that box.

    Fifth, mark the check box that says "Search this forum only" and "Display results as threads". This is all you'll need to fill out. Do not check the "Posted by Member" box unless you are looking for a specific post of someone's. The same applies to the "Newer Than" box.

    Sixth, press Search.

    Seventh, go through the results and see if you can find your idea there. If you can't find your idea, try searching for something similar.


    Basic recap: Search; if you can't find anything the first time, try again. Be more general. Click a thread that seems like it may contain your idea. Check the original post as well.

    If you have and you have already checked out the "Do Not Suggest These Thread" then you may make your post, otherwise post in a thread that was already made. Also, try to provide plenty of information on your new post/thread (especially if you are bumping an old thread).

    This applies to other forum sections as well, like Help
