To clarify: When you search with your keyword/s you will get a page that appears to be unrelated to what you are searching for, however, the clever search engine has delved deeper than you would and if you open every single thread presented to you, I guarantee there will be somewhere in EVERY thread, the keyword/s you wanted and, 9 times out of 10, you will find EXACTLY what you are looking for.
OK - I just tried searching for the phrase "new server" - as that appears in the first post of this thread. What I got was a whole load of posts with 'new' or 'server' or 'new server'. I don't want the 'new' or the 'server' - I just want 'new server'. Nor do I want to while away my life inspecting every thread/post only to discover the result wasn't what I wanted.

So what am I missing? Are there special rules for the search engine for this forum that are different to other search engines?
