This forum is quite unique. It shows our actual character avatar, race name, and corp name. I too get speed issues at times (especially during downtime)
I believe the problem is that the forum is tied too much to the overall character database (correct me if i'm wrong). So it constantly retrieves information there thus slowing down its performance.
I really wish I knew. But yea, speed is an issue for me many times throughout the day.

Joshua Calvert came up with this method of searching, better than nothing:
Go to google.com and type this line in the search box: site: myeve.eve-online.com: xxxxxxx
Where'xxxxxx' is what you are searching for.
Once again, props to Josh for that one

for all you Firefox(mozilla?) users go here to add a search toolbar to your browser.
MSIE user can search using the google toolbar. You can choose to search "Current Site." That way you don't even have to leave the forums.
hope this helps.

Orestes - so you take an index of topics for the search each day at DT, no? Sure it creates high forum lag for several minutes, that's why you'd do it at DT.
There are ways and means and some boards out there already use em.

As far as the speed is concerned, if it meant taking away the ability to view your character stats online to get more speed, plz do it!
And as far as the searh function being "hard" This is probably the first game website I've been to that does not have one...
The problem is that since the forums are on the gameservers a search function might slow down the game itself, not the character stats. 
All I know is that t20 was working on a search function but there were problems with it, I don't know what the problems were exactly.

It just took over 3 minutes for me to be able to reply to this thread due to loading time, that is about 2 min & 50 seconds too long... That is the technical problem...
Maybe the Forums should not be on the game server, I have no need to see the ugly mugs of those I'm insulting or flaming...
Seeing your character stats & such is cute, but if that is the reason we don't have a search function, and the forums take forever to load, than it was not smart to put the forums on the game server... Fix it...
We can get all the information in-game that we can here, no need to have it slow down the forums IMO...
I also have a big problem with ISD, but I don't forsee a major change in forum moderation anytime soon... The profanity filter should go as well...

Neocron's forum uses vb3 tied into account management so only people with active accounts can post.
It's moderators are annoying, but nowhere near the level of eve I'm afraid.
Things I'd like:
Cut the stupidly long sigs that contains a graphic and 4 or 5 quotes underneath it.
Search function.
Proper control panel with such things as PM's and subscribing to threads.
Better profanity filter.
Less threads being deleted with no message, and no sign they ever existed.

<snip> Site functions such as search engines are easy to put in but very resource intensive. Its not that they cannot put them in, but cpu and bw load probably prevents them from doing so.
This is a question that comes up from time to time. Currently, the game and forums are hosted by the same server bank. As a search feature is somewhat resource intensive, this would cause an increase in, you guessed it, lag in the game.
The web and server staff do have plans to impliment a search feature on the forums, but the forums need to be taken off of the current servers for obvious reasons. When I asked t20 about this in the past, there were plans being made do to so and yet maintain the ability to look at character sheets, have the portraits next to forum posts, etc.
This is something that is going to happen after Shiva at the earliest.

you could probably set up a server for an independent forum that grabs character image data daily from Tranquillity in about 30 minutes. The character info can stillbe on the same server.
