At some point during the last year or so the search function got changed so that now if you search without entering anything into the search bar nothing comes up, not sure if that's a glitch or not but if it's a deliberate change I don't get the reason for it. See that function was useful to me in case I accidentally missed some new stories before they left the "new" part of a categories page by organizing by category and by date, but now if I want to catch up on new stories I missed before they left a main categories section I have to go page by page in certain categories that I'm interested in(I.E. Celebrity and transsexuals) and use Ctrl+F to search for specific dates so I could find which stories I missed, doing that got frankly got quite tedious and created a real FOMO that forced me to check the specific category pages like every day(at least for ones that get frequently updated like Transsexuals and Crossdressers, whereas before I could relax and not check for a few days knowing I could always catch up later via the search function) and sometimes inevitably I would forget and end up several stories behind and it would take longer then necessary for me to find the new stories i'd missed. It had gotten to the point where I had to put on podcasts while searching for the new stories because of how tedious it was, finally last month i'd had enough and just stopped bothering checking the new section of certain categories altogether(Celebrities at least isn't updated with as many stories so i've got at least some leeway to forget to check it for a few days and not have to worry about missing any new stories)because I just can't take the tedium of having to check every page one by one with CTRL+F, honestly it's sucked a lot of enjoyment out of this site for me so I've stopped visiting as often as I used to, and i've been a regular visitor since 2008 but I don't see myself coming back much if this search function is not restored or at least improved from how it is now.
There has got to be a less painful and tedious way of catching up on new stories I missed and restoring the old search function would make a big world of difference to me and several other users.
