How many times does the search bar have to dissappear, be disabled, non functioning... etc etc etc
I do not believe this is a mistake. NOTHING MENTIONED BY MODS. Why?

I did it.
We are currently looking at how much cpu search uses so we are getting a benchmark with the site running without it.
Should be back on tomorrow. Apologies.
Who is PuttItOut?

He is the owner that KingKongIsWrong handed the forum off to. He seems to have a nordic nature and may be one of the originators of Voat as well. He does have a highly refined if slightly artificial intelligence feeling moral sense. He supposedly wants to know if any mods are compromised but mostly he stays out of everything and can hardly ever be seen here. If a few people pinged him about getting the bar righted once and for all, he might respond and actually be able to do something.
I think the way to go about it is embarrassment - seriously what kind of forum can't figure out how to keep a search bar going? Seriously deficient tech OR... someone wants to cripple this forum. One or the other, can't have it both ways.
Watch out though, the mod Vindicator or wecanhelp can't remember wheeled around and blasted me for thinking that the site "owed" us a search bar or anything at all, how arrogant of me, the mods need a vacation, etc... not long ago when I brought it up. I pointed out that the MODS DO HAVE CONTROL OVER ANNOUCEMENTS and could at minimum as a courtesty let people know what is going on (no response on that point of course). I can permalink if you need to see it, but trust, it was the typical inefficient, arrogant mod stance.
