In the search panel one always has to manually change from Posts to Topics in the "display results as:" Section. Topics makes much more sense when you're searching for wrappers or games. It reduces noise in the results by a big amount.
From all the options in the search panel, this is probably the most important one and it'd be great if it could either be made the default to display the results by Topic or to move this option further to the top.
The radio buttons are also not linked to the texts so one always has to aim precisely to hit the radio button and not just hit the text.

would be great if that could be improved!

No changes like that will be made anytime soon...although I'm sure devilhunter can take this into consideration when the new IPB Forum is being put together. We'll be getting a facelift, a total conversion here in the next few weeks so this particular forum won't be getting any new features or major overhauls....all energy is being focused on the new forum provider...I think dev is working on the download modules which seems to be the toughest part but hopefully we'll see something in a couple of months.

a alright, so i was just too slow. maybe the notifications should be sent after it was marked as spam (that only works if spam is marked automatically by the server, not manually... in that case ignore that idea)
