Increasing search syntax length limit on TPB

[Adam_OSFP]

Would it be feasible to allow more characters in search syntax? I don't know if many people find it restrictive, but I'll give you one example.
I search mainly for good quality, popular movies, so, for instance, I have to use two links to TPB, one for 1080p:
https://thepiratebay.gd/search/1080p (x2...am/0/9/207

and another for 720p:
https://thepiratebay.gd/search/720p (x26...am/0/9/207

So, I'm doing two searches instead of one, just because of the limited length. Not to mention I'd love to add few more exclusions to my searches (you should check sometimes the crap being posted in HD-Movies category). I don't know exactly what impact on your servers would this potential increase have, but I'm pretty sure multiple searches use more CPU cycles and RAM (correct me if I'm wrong). You guys don't even seem to try to limit excessive number of searches, so why not loosen the length restrictions.

Anyways, give it some thoughts.

Cheers,

The TPB search engine is not that accurate anyway (google/torrentzeu are indexing TPB better), so it would mostly be meaningless to allow more characters in a search.
The TPB and SuprBay are now hosted in cloud so, CPU/RAM won't be a problem

Feasible? Yes

Likely? No

There is little call for such sophisticated searching, and even less real need for it. You could easily get away with https://thepiratebay.gd/search/(1080p | ...)/0/99/207 [There were no "undesirable" results at all in the first four pages ie. the top 120 results; only 1 on the fifth page and 1 on the sixth page and after that I stopped counting: 2 false positives out of 180 results is hardly intolerable.]

You should've limit your answer to first two lines -- it would be perfectly understandable and acceptable (and frankly, something I was expecting). What you did in remaining of your post though, is pure bullshit and manipulation. You've change sorting from leechers to seeders, just so you could "prove" your point and attempt to patronize me? That's fucking lame.

EDIT:

...which doesn't change the fact that you are basically right. There is no need for change and this thread was unnecessary after all. Nowadays it's sufficient (for me at least) to use something like https://thepiratebay.gd/search/x264|x265...di/0/9/207 which gives me pretty much all the results I want.

fwiw, I didn't even realise I'd changed the sort order. and it wasn't an attempt to patronize you-it was an attempt to help you use a feature which we aren't going to change.

The really funny thing is, I actually did reply with just the first two lines but when I read it back THAT appeared to me to come across as patronizing, which is why I went back and spent some of my own time to figure out a way to help you get the results you wanted regardless. I'll not make that mistake again.

Cheers    <-- see that?  That's patronizing; you ignorant, ungrateful fuck.
