I think there should be an update here in the forum... a Search button!! With this people who wants to find a topic already inactive could find it instead of creating a similar one. Don't you think?

Or (example), now I wanted to find the topic which had a discussion about the prices of the construction of the arena and i can't find it...

I agree with you, it's not easy now, as the game is begining, imagine in a few months...

They said: "Search function would cause server load, therefor we can't implement it"

In some other game there is search function in forum...

You're completely right...a well indexed database will cover the traffic caused by a search engine very well...however, it is their decision...Hopefully they change their mind about... In grid iron we have an external crawler which is walking through the whole forums each night to get at least a simple search function.

A really good idea, but there could be also added filters like:

"Don't show topics more than x days old"
