Thumbs down Search bar rant!

As much as I love HC, I get incredibly fustrated with the search tool
For example when I search for the bargain cage thread...I get the bargain toy thread.
And I've trying to find the thread for hamster and human cuddle pics, but I just can't find it
Can anyone help?

Now I know we can't sticky every thread just for my ease of use But I'd like to ask if people can be more selective when naming informational or threads for multiple uses so its easier to find.

I think that it helps the search engine if you put tags on the threads you like.

So if you put the title of the thread in the tags, the search will find it easier

If that makes any sense x

Thankyou, I hadn't thought about subscribing to threads or tagging. That should help a lot
