A while back Facebook removed the ability to refine searches using the main search box on Facebook. No idea why they did it, but they did it. What we have now is a retarded search box that just finds whatever, but nothing that you’re really looking for.
Previous, the Search on Facebook would allow you to refine your searches by typing specific names, and towns, jobs and other info such as: “People named ***** who live in Wichita, Ks, and works at McDonalds”, etc. but this no longer works.
I had given up on finding certain people that I was looking for until tonight, when I discovered that there is still a way to perform Facebook Advanced Searches.
To do so, you need to be logged in, and goto the Requests page, and on the left of that page will be an Advanced Search box, where you can customize the info to find people based on name, city, etc, just as before, if not easier.
