well when u search its just searching for the word u typed so if no one else used that word on here ur now going to find it. r u looking for bbw in the porn section? thats the only thing i can think of the would have bbw in it. all u have to do though is click the search button on top and type in bbw if ur looking for porn, if u looking in other sections u can click on the advance and narrow ur search down. well hope that helps sorry the response took so long but yesterday was thanksgiving

**rodzillahotrod** · #5 (**permalink**) 28th November 2009, 13:52

if u cant find it then it usually means no ones used that word on here. what r u searching for maybe i can help, what does bbw stand for?

You cant search words shorted than 4 chars, because it puts excessive strain on MYSQL which sadly is a pathetic piece of shit as far as databases go, also VBULLETIN has ZERO database optimisation and terrible structures, so it puts even more BAD LOAD on the server when it does searches.

The default therefore is not to allow small searches.

This is a problem in most forums unfortunately - if they software indexed all the short/common words, it would take the server to it's knees

**rodzillahotrod** · #12 (**permalink**) 13th December 2009, 10:03

i've never seen any site use common words as search able

Well the problem is that MYSQL is a very bad engine, and that Vbulletin is some of the worst code I have ever seen, and even worse database design.

SQL as a technology is more than capbable of doing the job, its Vbulletin that is at fault.

I used to write banking databases I could query 4 TB databases and get replies on data sub 3 seconds.

Its not so much in the indexing but how the database is designed and rationalized. Does it conform to 3rd normal - etc.
