Every time I do a search on this board the last week or so, I get the 30 second message, despite not having made a search within 30 seconds, so I have to wait for that 30 seconds to time out to do any search.

Not a big deal, but really annoying.
 
"New posts" and "todays posts" count as a search.

Are you clicking them prior to attempting a search?

No, I don't use either feature.

Edit, to make sure, I waited 1 full minute after posting this, doing nothing, clicked on your name in the post above me, clicked on "find more posts by vauge"(have I mentioned how much I like your username by the way?), and it told me I had to wait 23 seconds between searches.

Anyone else have this issue?
 
I am starting to think it is just me that is broke. To check if it was still a problem, I tried a search on your posts again vague, and sure enough, I was told I have to wait 30 seconds.
 
Do you have an "ad" blocker on your browser?

I wonder if it is removing the "session id" when you search.

I use Mozilla, which I think has a built in one. Sec, let me fire up IE and see if it does the same thing.

Edit: this is in IE, and doing a search for more posts on your name did not give me the 30 second wait, so it does appear to have to do with Mozilla.

Edit again: and IE looks ugly compared to Mozilla, I remember now why I switched.

And last edit: back in Mozilla, and there is the 30 second message again searching for your posts, so I think it is safe to say the problem is with Mozilla. If others are not having the problem, I would not spend much time on it, since it's just a nuisance and not a critical thing.

Disabling adblocker seems to have worked. Thanks!

Edit: It also seems to have fixed the problem with thanks not showing until page reloads.
