Default Search - Character Limit

Hi, any chance the character limit can be reduced? At the moment search strings have to be 4 or more characters long, but the amount of times i've needed to search for something that's only 3 characters long and have been unable to is annoying! Such as "BRB" or "RUB". I know it could add a little more strain on the server, but I think the restrictions in place (such as 1 search every 30 seconds) are good enough to not cause problems. Or you could maybe remove search restrictions for premium members maybe? Thanks!

bottom of the main page is a google search where you can search the site for less than 4 digits.

Never noticed the google search, will see how it goes thanks! But would still be nice for the search feature to allow 3 character searches
