3 letter searching

hi guys,

just wondering if its possible to restore 3 character searches again? we used to have it, and afaik with the forum upgrade it went walkies again.

instances where this is useful;

nod
gpx
zxr
rgv
rgv 250
lee is awesome (i realise searching for awesome will probably just bring up me anyway, but y'know)

etc etc. if this is too hard i completely understand, but i'm just wondering if its something that was forgotten after the upgrade?

Google Search searches the whole page, whereas the forum search only searches posts and titles.

So searching for gpx will return every page that has gpx on it, which can be a lot
This is mostly a problem for bike models...

And where does the content on the page come from?

Dear PSB God

I was let down by psb today

I was looking for the lol thread because, one of the girls in the office asked me to cheer her up. But i just couldn't find it in the time frame that i needed it in.

So i had to result to the sick sick sick jokes thread, and it didn't go as well as i planed.

apparently this joke isn't one you send around the office:

Whats red bubbly and taps on glass

A baby in a microwave.

My god that is funny!

but she didn't think so, and this resulted in overall yearly loss of poontang.

Please, help troy regain his respect and raise his yearly poontang intake.

Your sincerely

T-roy

From what I remember searching for 929 a while ago, I couldn't use the forum search, and 929 in the Google Search also returned every post made by undead who has 929 posts. I don't know if it does the same for the bike field, but I assumed it might

yah. or now, anyone with '929' written in their bike description under their avatar.

you can use it, but as ben said, it's pretty annoying to have to do.

i can understand tys if it's too much work or not possible, i'm just wondering if it can be done as before?

whadya say buddy?
