Out of curiosity, I checked the trade center for the newest Morostide minion, Eater, and I got this:

Quote
No results: &quot;Eater (Black and Cream Striped Chunky Knit Sweater)&quot; in &quot;item search&quot;</p>
<p>Did you mean? Black Argyle V-Neck Sweater, Black Knitted Button Sweater, Black Striped Button Sweater, Black Striped Sweater,
[167 more]
Needless to say, I'm incredibly confused. I had only put in "Eater."

Chrome + Windows 7. [edit]Unless it's for the partial "sweater," it's still weird that it won't show the minion right off then list off the rest of the results.

I think it's pretty much always been like this. It's pretty frustrating. (For example, if you type in "Mist" you get 38 results; my first option was Alchemists Gold Braid, I believe)

Yeah, I realized that after I made the topic. Still, either way, it's frustrating.

Hmmm.. I wonder if there's anyway it could be programmed to prioritize... or maybe be given a drop-down "search exact term" or something... because, seriously, yours is just ridiculous! I'd hate to have to paw through every sweater on site to finally get to an anteater!

There should be ways, truth be told.

Yeah there should be a way to search exact items in trades. There is kind of a work around. Search in shops and then if you click the link to the trades center under the item name it should take you straight to those trades.

That was what had me stumbling over this in the first place but if you say so. c:

Eater does show up if you click the (# more) link.

Your first post says that you searched through the trades. Sorry, I have never come across that problem but since it is on the list of search results I really don't see this as a bug.

I can move it to the suggestions forum if you maybe want to suggest that it be changed. Or Feedback if you feel that it would be better there.

Okay, I'll take your word for it.

I may have expressed myself badly: when I first ran into this, there were five Eaters in the searches and for the sake of being curious on how to price my original Eater I got from returning Snowflaik, I clicked the link of "There's some in the trade center!" (Or whatever it is. I can't remember atm.) Which yields a bunch of results for sweaters.

Understandably but not what I was looking for. XD
