So (say) if I were looking (...) (20 years ago, 7-Jul-04, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

(...) Sounds like the solution is to remove .debate from the top level index file, but leave it in the off-topic subtree index files. How hard could that be? Don (20 years ago, 7-Jul-04, to lugnet.admin.general, FTX)

Two weeks after that, however, I wrote a brand new search indexer and results engine which runs on the order of 100 times faster, but which doesn't make such filtering so easy.

Why don't my skip filter settings apply to searches? I did a search for "animals" hoping to find some building hints, but most of the hits came from .debate, and you can guess what *they* were talking about.
