How to use the Search Button
How to use the Search Button
Yes, this is EXACTLY what you think it is.
I went through the absolutely MUNDANE task of creating a video tutorial to show you all how to use the search button, and explained some of the more advanced features of it so that from now no one can say "i dun no how 4 to search teh hacks!" or "I DID SEARCH!" because if they do, then they can either be directed to this thread, or to use the search button, or the thread that would have answered their question.
Call me an ass, I don't really mind, but the bottom line is apparently some of our users just do NOT understand how to do some of the things that they can do with the search button. That's why I made this tutorial in depth, explanatory, and thorough.

Wow. 10 chars
Nicely done. It was well-made and in-depth. 
Stickied for now...
thank you so much, everyone should have to watch this.
Now now, I didn't do this to "target" anyone. I did this because The section needs it (possibly even the community) due to a recent uprising of things that could have been found using the search button in it's ADVANCED mode.
That is the EXACT reason that I specifically explained everything LOUD AND CLEAR about how the advanced section works, and gave walk-throughs, and even an example.
This is something that people are apparently unfamiliar with, and it should be given to them in just as polite a manner as the guides, hacks, tutorials, etc. themselves.

Well, you did specifically say "leechers" which DOES target a specific group, albeit I highly doubt that a contributor, mod, or otherwise would need that, it could still come off a certain way.
I love that fact that you did this, well done sir!
