It would be nice to have a filter on the "Search Legions" tab, so that people could find the legions that have a certain amount of members without having to click through tens or even hundreds of pages of useless ones.

what bugs me is when you search for a legion if you don't capitalize it correctly it might not even show up.

Not always; "the Dysonians" doesn't find "The Dysonians", for example.

This has been suggested before, but it's still a good idea; preferably be able to sort by rank, power, and members.

Also if you search "Order", then "Phoenix Order" does not show up.

When searching for Phoenix Order, it's cause you have to put a space before order...
As for The Dysonians, I have nothing..if I type The dysonians, it works
But still, wouldn't a filter be nice? Similar to the legion filter

Yeah, it's little tics like that which REALLY need to be adressed. Bet if you put in a space in front of Dysonians, that would work for you just like Phoenix Order.

Along the same lines I'd like to see a search feature for induvidual pilots. It would be an unattackable link, would not show ship technologies, but would allow you to send comms over. Ideally it would have a few filters like rank and a search field for specific names.

What the legion search really needs is a way to filter by average rank, legion strength, etc....

I noticed, it also only searches from the beginning, rather than "contains" the string you enter. And should be case insensitive.
