Default Question about the search function

Not an important thing or a problem, but I'm curious as to what the "Also search in child forums" tickbox at the bottom of the Search page is. Looking for the phrase "qwerty", I got 12 results with it checked and the same number with it unchecked, so what does it actually do?

Child forums are forums within a forum. It's like forum-ception.

If you look at the forum list, under 'Fun and Games' there's "Sub-Forums: Empty Closets Arcade". This is the closest thing we have to it here, although it doesn't actually link to another forum. If you were to search in Fun and Games without the 'Also search in child forums' box being ticked, it wouldn't include the arcade in the search.

We aren't keen on having sub-fora here, because they might get neglected and cliquey.

Okay, that makes sense. Thanks!
