Are there other "extra" things that you get to do with higher post counts? Where would I go to find out?

my personal problem with the whole searching thing isnt not being able to find a thread on what i search, its being able to find the information in the thread. its all very well telling people that things have been discussed before, and great, you search and find a thread that contains the right stuff, only its 64 pages long (or something massive lke that) and in those 64 pages, you gotta find what you were after. ok so if its in the title of the thread its likely to be near the begining but who knows really! you dont wanna ask at the end of the thread incase it has been said before, but reading through 64 pages to find a small amount of information that could be anywhere... where do you draw the line?!
see where im coming from here? im not even sure im making sense to myself now!

at the same time though, if we're coming down on people for being lazy and not linking to useful threads, shouldn't some of the responsibility of the person looking for the information be to find what they think is useful? a 64 page thread may be intimidating, but there's always the 'show all' function, which makes browsing large threads much easier.

Personally though, I prefer looking through several medium length threads to one 64-page one.

Bringing this on topic- would it not be a good idea to scrap the phrase 'do a search' and to instead, as several have suggested, do the search yourself and post the result?

i.e. 'I've done a search and it's found this....'- which indicates to a newbie the value of searching.

Surely they would just search for what they wanted to know?
i.e: If they want to learn the 5 beat weave, the obvious thing to type in is.. "five beat weave"
Wanted to know how to make sparkley poi, they would probably search for "sparkley poi"
If they wanted to know which music they shoud spin to, they should try "what music should I spin to?"
or am I being stupipd and missing something?
