Default What's wrong with the forum search tool?

So, I replied to a post that had ecm/pcm in the title yesterday.

today, I tried to search for all threads with ecm located in them and the search tool came back with nothing found.

why couldn't the search function find ecm?

Moved this to the correct section for reporting issues with the forum. Also, reported to higher ups so they can look into this. Apparently search is fubar. I tried searching for things I KNOW are here and it comes back saying nothing found. Thank for the heads up.

I think you need at least three characters in your search terms as well.

LOLOL. Yes, I can indeed count, but, I cannot type.

4, possibly 5 characters minimum.

Search is lack luster... You can find all the posts you've made through your profile / statistics
