I think a search function for posts is a great idea. I found the following playing around with Google: 570,000 results for "french military successes," 2,810,000 for "french military victory," and 657,000 for "french military victories."

I also want to know:
How many forums total does this site have? (There's France, USA, World, discussions, ff pub, flames, games, salutes, and then hot topics! which seems to cover them all)
Why does Block Options in my profile say "Block/Friend list" when it's opened? Can we have a list of favorite members too?
