Search not working?

[akin 2]

Greetings all!

Okay, so for twelve hours or so I haven't been able to get into even empty servers due to getting stuck at "Waiting for server response".

So I came here and thought I'd search and see if other people were having this problem, and I entered "Waiting for server response" as my search string (with the quotes).

I got a message back that said "One or more of your search terms were shorter than the minimum length. The minimum search term length is 3 characters.

If you're trying to search for an entire phrase, enclose it within double quotes. For example "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"."

Ummm... huh? Too short? How, exactly? And, I did enclose it in quotes...

Any suggestions?

The "waiting for server response" message is well known and everybody has it at some point. It is important that when you get it that you remain patient and give the server some time to process all requests. If you end up in a forest and cannot move all your requests to the server timed out. Press ESC, click on disconnect, you will see the lobby again where you can click on "ok" or decide to leave the server.

I had to do two stops in "debug-forest" this evening before I was able to play ;). Just have something to read nearby.

Hope I could answer you questions concerning the "waiting for server response"-message. Unfortunatelly I can't help you with your other question.
