Most forums provide a search to allow posters to query for similar questions before posting one of their own in order to reduce duplication of efforts.

Have I overlooked the search button for the forums, or has CS overlooked adding that feature?

yep i use that feature but i think it could do with some options or an 'advanced search' mode where one can fine tune searches. Like current thread/all threads, my posts/responses to me/specific member/all, date range/all...

Ah, you're an old hand, Conrad, so I'll take your word for it. However, it doesn't seem like that would help very much with the original purpose stated here, i.e., screening out redundant threads.
