What is the best way to search for old threads you participated in?

I google gog.com and monkeydelarge but I don't get many results. Is there a better way?

I get 1,150 results, with very few duplicates, when I search for:
"monkeydelarge" site: gog.com/forum

Adding in words relevant to the topic narrows it down substantially.

This link will help you develop your Google-fu if it not yet at a zen master level. ^_^

Make an offering to the Great Keane... First kneel and raise your hands over your head and shout the Great One's name three times. Then, prostrate yourself to his likeness, which you have fashioned from wood, stone, and the occasional grape fruit. Place your offering of grain before his Greatness. Finally recite:

Oh Great Keane
Both the past and future you have seen
Help me now with my search
And never your name shall I besmirch

Then, drink a lot of wine and write down the first three numbers that comes into your head. They will help you on your old thread quest. No one knows their meaning beforehand. The truth will only be revealed if you prove yourself worthy.

Nah. Google does an amazing job but you still sort of need to think like a machine to get the most out of it. Practice and a few hints here and there; if it were natively as easy as asking a person a thing, then knowledge workers like me wouldn't have any job security at all XD

Kid, I've flown from one side of this galaxy to the other. I've seen a lot of strange stuff, but I've never seen anything to make me believe there's one all-powerful Keane controlling everything. There's no mystical energy field that controls my destiny. Anyway, it's all a lot of simple tricks and nonsense.

Strange. I copied and pasted "monkeydelarge" site: gog.com/forum into google and got around 255 results.

I fatfingered and screwed the syntax. No space after the colon.
