Is it just me or is the Forum Search function not working?

Yeah ...thread search works (if you happen to know the number you want) and Screen Name search also ...but the text search doesnt.

The only way I can get screen name to work is if they're the original poster (OP) - otherwise no result - also text search is really inconsistent - I've been raising this for a while and everyone tells me I'm doing it wrong....

Load of bull - just is not consistent

It works, just not very good, it's easier just to ask.
