I realize the forum search is "broken". However I forget how it's broken. I know some of you get errors when using it. So I'd like for you guys to use it (surely, you'll all use it in different ways) and report any errors you find here so I can fix them.

Hmmmmmmmm seems like I remember there being problems with it. There was a suggestion to search for titles... but that wasn't the error.

Idea Perhaps I'll search the error forum.

Like, you would search for something, and it would locate every single thread. And the search wasn't an error on my part. Don't remember any specifics though.

-- Amanda says: Paul Ringo and George... isn't there another one?
Paul says: John? Mmm Beatles.
Amanda says: IT'S THE BEATLES?
Amanda says: I thought it was like the Monkeys or something.
Paul says: You're kidding m

The problem with the search is you cant find threads by the title. Only within the thread.

So if I made a thread about a movie and entitled it Arlington Road and within the thread I put. Isnt this a great movie?

I go to the forum search and type in Arlington Road. It comes up with zero results.
