Xen search kind of sucks....its a problem most sites complain about BUT there is a way to make it less shitty.

Here is an example...

I was searching for the Game of Thrones thread. Typing thrones in the search and clicking search titles did not yield an accurate result (tho it did pull up other GOT threads). When this happens, hit advanced search > search threads > enter your keyword (and click title if you want it to search that) > at the bottom, check most replies. And boom, you should get the thread you want. Reading this, it seems like a long process, but its actually very fast and so far, accurate.

You're welcome.
