Cannot use search at this time

#1 Post by fasterbybike » Tue Mar 10, 2009 5:40 pm

Why do I get this message when I click search ?

"Sorry but you cannot use search at this time. Please try again in a few minutes."

Thanks

I have seen this message a few times as well. It happens to me mostly if I immediately try to search again.

There's a search timeout parameter set in the board options. It is normal. Try again in a few minutes. It is designed so that you do not tax the server.
