    Question Search Engine

    Can the search engine be changed to accept 3 leter words please? It's so annoying when searching the forums for three letter words (and lets be honest in the world of IT there are loads, eg. AMD, AGP, PCI, ISP, ATI and many more) and you are told it's under the 4 letter minimum.

    It's a good idea not to have 1 or 2 letter words in searches though as that would make results huge!

    I did not

    I have to rebuild the search index at a time when things are quieter (eg.. middle of the night).

    Patience

    This could account for any slowdown on other areas of the site so it needs to be monitored
