Airstream Addicts search functionality

For as great as facebooks Airstream Addicts group page is supposed to be, the search functionality of it is terrible. The information may be there but I can’t ever get results returned for what I’m looking for and I’m a regular FB user. Not saying it’s a reflection of the group prob more just FB but it’s painful to use. I find this page far more on point when searching a variety of topics. Anyone else experienced this?

I agree, in regards to Airstream Addicts as well as several Airstream and Argosy groups on Facebook, but then again, I may be a little biased as I have been a member of Air Forums for more than 20 years so the interface is very familiar. The Facebook interface, particularly for searching for anything that I have tried to find has never produced results reliably -- sometimes something of value can be found, but more often than not it becomes a long, involved string of nonsense results.

I gave Facebook and Airstream Addicts a try but like @over I never got the hang of it and I'm a computer software guy. It's sort of a potpourri of topics and I guess you can search for stuff but there's no organization that I can tell. There seems to be a pretty good following there, but I am always on Air Forums. \

AF isn't perfect, I find that a lot of topics come up again and again so it's either people don't bother to search or like me it's sometimes hard to find specifically what I'm looking for. There isn't a way to filter search results that I can tell.
