Annoying feature about the forum search feature.

I'm trying to search the classieds for female BCI's, but it seems this is quite impossible are the two key words required the seach are "Boa" & "BCI" these of course being 3 letter words, and it seems the forum doesn't like searching for 3 letter words.

Usless bloody thing

Unfortunatley if people could run 3 letter searches it would overtake the server ! Can you imagine the return on the word 'the'

Just a bit unfortunate really...

Scroll right down to the bottom of the page and you see a google search button, use the 3 letter keyword in there and let google power the search - they can afford it It'll still search within the forums just displays the search results on google instead of within rfuk.

You've never noticed before?! lol.

Also, try putting an asterix (*) next to the search if its <4 letters. Its the wildcard symbol thingy, but works pretty well.

This is a search for "bci*" :

I must just be weird then... I tend to be searching 24/7, and am hating the 30 second limit

Being in the market for a female BCI at the moment I was interested in the Mental & Skinny Boa thread. I was being nosey as to who sold it so I could potentially avoid them.
