I've been looking through some old threads and I think I might have found something screwy going on with the search.

If I search for "Wildcats" (no quotes) then I get a few threads come back from the search.

If I search for "NBL" (no quotes) then I get no results.

However the Wildcats search includes some results that also should be returned by the NBL search, e.g. http://www.ozgolf.net/showthread.php/20675-2010-11-NBL-Tipping-Comp

I know this thread is old, but I was looking to see if there were any newer NBL threads...

For the record, yes I follow the NBL, but I'm a 36ers fan, not a Flopcats fan :)

Min 4 letters.

Try a search for "MH370". They've tried everywhere else.

That would explain it. Thanks!

Maybe the fans only discuss it in the NBA thread: http://www.ozgolf.net/showthread.php/27381-NBA?

Never thought of googling the site. Thanks for the tip.

I never used to even like basketball, but been to several games since moving to Aus and now I'm hooked on the games I can watch live, but it just isn't the same on TV so the NBA doesn't have the same grab.

The advantage of searching using the forum is to be able to make it specific to searching within a thread title and/or by a certain user.

timah!

People use the search funtion? How novel...
