Is anyone else here fed up with the message in response to a search "Sorry but you cannot use search at this time. Please try again in a few minutes."

We rightly admonish other WWs when they are too lazy to use the search function. But FFS, let's have a search function that works!

Can anything be done to resolve?

When is this happening? I've never had an issue while searching and I do search somewhat frequently.

It rarely happens on the first search but frequently happens on the second or more searches. I find if you leave the site and come back it works ok but it's a faff

I just did ten searches in a row and all came up fine. I'll keep trying and see if I can come up with the message.

This happens to me all the time. I really don't know why there is a restriction on how many times you can search. I'm using Windows 7 and Chrome at this time, but it also occurs when I'm on XP and Firefox.

It also happen to me a lot..I'm a Mac/Safari user. Would be nice to fix it it, please.

Yup it's annoying. Happens if you try to do a search right after you just did a search. It should read "No search for you....One year!"
