Okay, I'm sure you all have this problem and know its gotta be fixed. When you type something in, "Cat" for example, you get things like "Blue Adidas Hood" or "Green dc with Gloves". About 75% of the time, I don't find what I'm looking for. And yes, somethings do come up for cat, but seriously, this needs to be a little more accurate. Shouldn't search results come up by name of item, I really don't like the whole tags idea. People can just add lots and lots of random tags just to get their item more popular.

So, should ROBLOX change, or how I say, "fix" the search?Or add a sort by option called, "Name". So when you search it brings up something actually related to your search.

I'll do two scenes to show you what I mean.
Scene 1 - Sort by:Relevance, you type in cat, you get "MUSCLE SHIRT 10K BUYS" and "NBA Jordan Jacket".

Scene 2 - Sort by:Name (or whatever), you type in cat, you get "Cat t-shirt", and "Business Cat".

Hopefully you guys agree with me, that ROBLOX should add some sort of better search engine option to find what your looking for ACCURATELY, if you support please say so, if not, tell me why and I'll be glad to reply.

This is absolutely true. I like the idea of the categories, rather than just changing all of it. Great thinking!

The issue is the people who post irrelevant tags in their items in hope to get more sales.

Honestly, that detracts me from buying anything from them. Ever.

Exactly, that's why ROBLOX should make a search based on the title of that item, not the tags.

...? Why not both the tags AND title?

Well yes, but I think having a title based search would really get rid of the unnecessary items for that search.

Hm.... Maybe an option ticker thingy? Like click tags, or click title, or click them both?

Pros:

- Peoples will make too many tags, so this idea will filter.

Cons:

- Will break some tags (related to the title), useless.

Tags shouldn't be allowed, though.

I agree they should make the catalog user friendly especially for first timers and don't have to click as much just to get what you want.

It's due to people putting in tags.
