Using Google to search the forums instead of the actual forum search bar

Not as much of a suggested improvement, but more of a “hack” or “trick”

So, I find that the in-house search bar is kind of difficult to use effectively [at times, not all the time].

For instance, if you filter your search through “most relevant”, it most often pulls up posts and topics from circa '12 [whyyyy would those be most relevant?]

If you filter the search for “latest topic or post”, the spectrum of choices gets super broad and basically pulls up just about everything except what I’m looking for.

I usually have much better results putting my key search word or phrase + yoyoexpert forum into Google’s search bar. What I’m searching for is usually within the first two or three links.

So yeah.
