Welcome to ASSTR's search engine! This engine was researched and developed entirely by the ASSTR programming team, and in doing so we've created an engine that's customized just for ASSTR that offers the fastest, most comprehensive engine possible.
This engine searches the entire ASSTR site, including the archives at ASSTR (Alt.Sex.Stories.Moderated archive, MCStories.com, Nifty archive, etc). The engine was last reindexed on 2013-05-25 to ensure up to date results. We currently index 503786 works!
Instructions
To use the search engine, simply type in the words you want to search for, separated by spaces. Like Google's search, you can optionally use plusses to designate words you require in the results. A word with no special flags is treated by default as having a plus in front of it. Use a minus sign to indicate words you don't want in your results.
The engine also supports the use of quotation marks to search for consecutive words (ie phrases). Searches using quotes may take a great deal of time, so please be patient.
For example, to find all stories containing the words "pizza", "lesbian", and "dog" just type in pizza lesbian dog and click search. If you want to find stories with the word tuna but not fish, query for tuna -fish. To find stories by author Martin Ryans but not the title "Sally meets Johnny", try searching for "Martin Ryans" -"Sally meets Johhny".
