I think it doesn't like search terms with three or fewer letters (it either ignores or treats punctuation like a space). So it sucks if you are searching abbreviation and acronyms.
Try longer fragments like illu for illusion.

That was it exactly, I am now a searching fool, thanks Xmas.

So, searching titles of threads that use 'ill' for Illusionist will get you nowhere.
Searching titles of threads for 'illu' will retrieve only those that used 'illu' as an abbreviation for Illusion/Illusionist/illustration/etc...
Searching titles of threads with 'illu*' will retrieve threads that have words that begin with I L L U.
Using the wild card in front doesn't work. So, a search for *usion goes nowhere.

I am unable to search anything on the forums, always reports back that no results were found. I am not changing any of the default settings just searching all forums with keywords (even the most basic keyword return nada). I was looking ill/rad builds and advice. Anyone else have this problem? I would run a search on it....
