Search Function

This always seems to bite me, but I try to search for something that contains some keyword less than 4 letters and it shuts me down.

For example: I was looking for the Upcoming CD Releases thread. Tried searching for :CD release: and it wouldn't help me.

I had to find it remembering that I had posted something about Ben Folds in it.

Is there any way to change this?

If you use a ? or * in the search string it will take care of that. So search car* instead of car.

It's just a think to keep the search index database within reasonable sizes.

I tried searching the OffTopic forum for "30 Rock" last night. Man, did that suck... It won't let you use multiple wildcards, so *30* Rock didn't work, **30 Rock, 30** Rock, etc.

I ended up just having to search for the word Rock and click through I don't know how many pages of threads.
