You can search the whole folder, or the thread you are in. You have to choose. There are radio buttons.
t edit What's with that name, anyway? "Radio buttons"?
I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Radio buttons are like the ones that car radios use to have, with the preset stations. They were partly mechanical, so that only one could be pushed in (to select it) at a time.
Next I will explain to you why we "dial" the telephone.

Comes from car radios that used to have these plastic buttons along the bottom that you could program to individual stations. If one was pushed in, none of hte others would work. When you pushed in another button, the one that had been pushed in popped out. It means that only one at a time can be chosen, and you change it by clicking on one of the options.
Edit: Darn your fast fingers, Theo.

I'd be interested in multiple message centers, but not to the point of panicking if we didn't get them. I'd find subscribing/unsubscribing easier if there were 'select all' / 'deselect all' buttons, and could edit my sub list from that point onward.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

ita! Could there, pretty please, be links to that absolutely fabulously wonderful search engine? Like, maybe in the threads and the message center? Pretty please, fabulous one?
