John, I noticed a few months ago, we lost another important thing from the search feature.

Used to be if I searched for something, that key word or phrase would be highlighted in red on every post that came back from the search.

Now it is gone! Can you tell us if it is gone for good, or perhaps just lost somewhere waiting to see if anyone misses it?

I miss it.

You see, from a users perspective, it it a valuable time saver. If I am searching for anything "gnet", I get all these posts with a bunch of words and paragraphs. It takes much more time to scan the posts to find what I'm looking to find.

Also, sometimes, I've noticed that what I did a search for is not even in a post that comes back from said search. This is not fiction.

Not only is that frustrating to experience(after scanning a post a couple times), it's nothing shy of a waste of time.

Any guidance on this one would be appreciated, thanks.
