Can the minimum 4 character restriction on searches be lifted? Seems like a silly and arbitrary limit. There are plenty of reasons why someone might want to search for a three letter acronym.

There's gotta be a technical reason for it, like pulling up thousands of posts by searching the word and or the or even worse, LE. What are you searching for anyway? Maybe I can help. Pm me.

 
This caught my eye because I use to be quite involved in search algos, SOUNDEX & much more. Loved it!

In the Google search box, you can use Advanced Operators to searh for, say 3 letter terms on a site:

site:drugbuyersguide.com +"OTC"

I used an innocuous term I had posted recently for this example, but I guess it wasn't indexed yet.

For that matter, I question why ALL our forum posts are indexed in the SEs.

======

Don't worry about data mining & the Wordtrackers -- There are a billion Google queries a day.

======

The 4 char forum query dates to when server bandwidth was at a premium, AFAIK.

And no, it's not meant to thwart 'LE'....

  3. L @ Layne_Cobain: See some of yall talking peptides and GH so I’ll throw it out as I’m considering it, anyone tried enclomiphene? Its legal but expensive like a less potent less side effect version of trt
  4. N @ neurowoot: I’m a simple man, I see peptide talk, I click, haha. I kinda wish there were better single vial resellers.

  9. moai @ moai: @CalFresh yes that’s what I do. Technically you can subQ but if you do even 50mg you’ll get a lump that takes a while to go away. I just pin IM in my delts and vent glute. I’ve done lat pins before too they aren’t bad

  16. moai @ moai: @MrFuszy needles in your vein or even getting a shot in your delt? I’m not even on steroids but I inject peptides and glutathione into fat and muscle in my shoulders and glutes. Or even peptide syringes are so tiny brother literally 5/16” 31g is so small you don’t feel it. And you just pinch some fat on your stomach or butt and the rest you can easily find out on internet/youtube
