search function down???

Well, at least for me, it seems to be down right now. Just FYI.

What does that mean? What results are you getting? Blank screen or a message or what? We can't fix "down right now" we need specifics. Have you looked through the Search FAQ sticky in S & S? http://www.bladeforums.com/forums/showthread.php?t=367558

It is working now and has been all day today. At the time it was down, I would try a search and then get a "Server Error" message. I think it said Code #401 or some such thing as that. These were all advanced searches, where I was searching by a poster's nickname or some search term that might appear in the title or body of text. I tried a few times over the course of 10 - 15 minutes and got the same results each time.

It's a moot point now since the issue seems to be resolved. However, if it happens again, I will get a screen capture or at least write down the specific error message in the hope that doing so will be more helpful to you folks. Thanks.

For some reason I don't have the search function. Do I have to be a paying member or something?

Just FYI, you get a lot here for the very little that Spark asks to upgrade your membership. The search function is just one thing you get. IMO, it is and will continue to be $ very well spent.
