This isn't a post about any site issues, more of a question / suggestion.

I was just wondering about how well the search feature works on the forums, I ran some quick searches for maf testing just see what happened, i can't say it worked too well but i didn't spend much time with it. It would be awesome if there was a search function that would allow you to search keywords by topics as well as within topics, something where you're not limited by 1 word tags.

I agree, I tried using the search function a while ago and just didn't seem to get as much feedback as I was expecting so I haven't used it in a very long time.

Brian's setup does work quite well.  Give it time to search.  Sometimes takes a bit.

One more suggestion...when you get your results page, right click on an item and open in new tab or window.  That way you don't lose the results page.
