I've seen too many topics come and go over the past few months with people saying "use the search bar". And I've noticed that not too many people look at the bottom of the page (were the search bar resides).
So to clear out some confusion, why not move the search bar to the top of the page? It's definitely more noticable there, don't you think?
It is a good idea, you should try and post it in the 'Newgrounds Evolution' thread in the where is/ how to forum, because liljim goes there and fixes it.

I knew something was under the tank at the bottom, but a 'Become Admin' button?
YAY!

Yeah I think the search bar would be best up top, for newbs.
Sup, bitches :)
agreed,there are some people who don't even know how the bottom of the page look like...

If people looked, they'd find it.
Maybe we should make it mandatory for a user to read the rules before making his/her first post. And having a "search it first" rule in the BBS rules.

Flaming would still be my favorite and most effective way to get the message across.
I think there is a rule that says search it first but it really is only common sense.
thats actually a good idea you should make a petition of all the members who support that idea i will sign

I meant something like this:
*User types first post*
*error appears*
Error: This seems to be your first post. You must read the rules first before posting.
*redirects to rules*

What if no mods are on? What if there were 100's of new posts tha a moderator needs to check? That would be too much work, and the mods aren't paid for it.

I suppose so...but we really need that search bar to move up.
