MNHQ - Is the search function broken or something?

Being a suspicious Dryad I tried to search on a poster, who had clearly posted (otherwise I wouldn't have anything to be suspicious of) but when i ran the search it came up with 0 messages!

Am I just being thick or is there something up with the search function broken? I ran a search on my own name and it came up with over 500 messages so it's obviously working on some people!

I tried it earlier (nuffin suspicious, was doing looking for something I posted on more than 51 threads ago).

not found.......altho I could always just look properly without cheating using search on myself

altho......maybe I searched under the worng name, going on how many names I have been thro recently[girn]

Search my name (this version) and the AIBU topic for example.

It brings up one post but I posted 3 times on that thread.

So it is obviously missing posts somehow. In some cases, that means no posts show up at all.

Will FB you if you want to know but obviously don't want to post on here!!

It has been like that for a few days. I did report it, but I think it was overlooked in the recent trollery.

Sometimes it says 0, sometimes it will pick up a few, but clearly not all, posts.
