it is verry hard to find things when i cant even search for things i tried to search "gps" and it said "One or all of your search keywords were below 4 characters or you searched for words which are not allowed, such as 'html', 'img', etc, please increase the length of these search keywords or choose different keywords" then i searched "global positioning system" obviously there is nothing by that name because barely anyone uses it

Don't bump old threads. Try "gps " - usually works for me on forums.

Then use a custom search using google (e.g. site:www.computercraft.info gps). I don't even know if it is possible to lower the minimum string length on the forum - and I'm sure it's like that for a reason.

I think he was more or less suggesting adding "keywords" to the search options. THings that are commonly used, one such word would be GPS, since that is one of the APIs. Or, if it is used in conjunction with other words in the string, it would return a valid search, instead of instantly rejecting it.
