Search function is very unreliable
The search function is very unreliable on this forum for some reason 
First Issue: As an example: If you go to the "C6 Parts for Sale/Wanted" section and search for the word "corsa", it does not show every post with the word corsa in the heading. I can do a page by page search manually and find several posts that the search missed
Second Issue: If you go to the advanced search and begin typing in a user name in the "Search by User Name" section it no longer gives a list of user names to choose from in a drop down box like it used to.
Is there a fix in the works for these issues? Thank you

I typed in the word "Exhaust" and did a search and it comes back and tells me "Sorry your search confused me"..... whats with that ?
I tried a bunch of variations of trying to figure out what I am looking for.... but no go.

Is the search system still fubared?
Or rather, when is the search fuction going to be repaired?
This is getting rediculous - it is irritating to say the least, trying to find posts from forum sponsors when you cant even search for "All posts by use...".

Internet Brands owns Jelsoft Enterprises, I would have thought some other issues with the forum would have been fixed; i.e. the search features and the views counter.
But I suppose everything takes time.
