hi. ill start with the forum suggestion.
search with 1 or multiple words/tags.
when making new topic in for example suggestions i should search all the pages of suggestions to see if my suggestion has been made. thats just inconvenient and time consuming which discourages ppl to search. with search by word one could search the subforum faster without looking into all the pages.
Downloading all drivers that i can see as excel file.
pretty much same as forum search, but it would make driver searching and filtering faster and better and i think it could improve gameplay.

I definitely like the idea of being able to download visible drivers as an Excel file. I know Jack has said that the reason there aren't a lot of filters on the driver search is because it leads to a lot of load on the database server. Generating the spreadsheet might be a load as well, but perhaps if the files are only generated once per day (one file for each scouting level), players could download the file and then filter it via Excel/LibreOffice/etc., and it would cut down on server load and be a net gain. I would definitely search this way if it were an option.

well 1 thing that would make it more sensible is to make it avaible for supporters only and non-supporters would use the current way.

Even though I'm not a subscriber and thus that wouldn't be of any benefit to me, that would be better for the health of the game as a value-add for subscribers.
