/search aka "find member" window: "search" button lag or some other issue


Recommended Posts

So I have noticed over maybe the last month that when I used the "find member" window (/search) that the "search" button isn't performing the the way it used to.

Sometimes when I click it, it just does nothing. 

It doesn't seem like I'm clicking through too quickly (used to able to just click through to find the listings I wanted to see) because I've waited for several seconds before checking it again and sometimes the same thing happens.

Sometimes it seems to skip over one of the listings that it should be showing (high end, mid range, low range, zone? maybe another mid range depending on population - in some undetermined rotation)

 

I'm experiencing this on all servers. I'm seeing it again on Reunion and the population is below 200.

I don't remember this happening before the Sunset, so I'm thinking something may have changed, and, I guess what I'm saying is, I don't think it is because an overall population increase.

 

Is anyone else seeing this?

If someone posts a reply quoting me and I don't reply, they may be on ignore.

(It seems I'm involved with so much at this point that I may not be able to easily retrieve access to all the notifications)

Some players know that I have them on ignore and are likely to make posts knowing that is the case.

But the fact that I have them on ignore won't stop some of them from bullying and harassing people, because some of them love to do it. There is a group that have banded together to target forum posters they don't like. They think that this behavior is acceptable.

Ignore (in the forums) and /ignore (in-game) are tools to improve your gaming experience. Don't feel bad about using them.

Recently they added a cooldown of sorts on being able to search. You should be seeing a "You cannot search again so soon. Please wait a few seconds and try again" message in system chat if you try to click search too soon after searching (exact time seems a little inconsistent, maybe 10-30 seconds).

Can't say that is very helpful.

 

Crowd ALL my chats with " The Consignment House is too busy to process your request. Please try again in a few moments." but hide the "You cannot search again so soon. Please wait a few seconds and try again." in system chat.
