    I think the database is just SO HUGE that the script has a hard time sorting through every post and thread ever made. So more specific threads/posts are easier to find whereas a general term may bring up errors.

    Kay,

    I have the same problem. Especially when I'm trying to find a thread that I know was started in the morning, and by afternoon it's no longer coming up in "New Posts" thing... Really miss the "Today's Active Threads" button.

       I made a couple of changes to the server. The search engine will now work more often. It is still slow and may take up to 90 seconds to complete a search. The server used to try to find up to a maximum of 10,000 results. After some testing I have found our server has enough trouble finding 100 results in 90 seconds.

       The search engine will be quickest when you use "Advanced Search" and narrow your search as much as possible.

       I have added "Today's Posts" to the navigation bar at the top of the page. Because of this the maximum number of results returned is now 300.
