partially reinstating the search function
I think, if it's at all possible, that the search function should be re-enabled, but not in full. I think that you should only be able to use it to search for your own user-name, and that's it. Just cos searching for your username is a pretty useful thing. It wouldn't be automatic though, because that would take up just as much (if more) bandwidth than before. There would be a page when a user clicked on the search link that would say. "Search has temporarily been disabled, except to search for your own username." then there would be a button you could click to do just that.
*shrug* never hurts to suggest.
