Default The Search On This Site Should Be Changed..

i hate it when i go to search for something and it gives me this garbage.. "The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search".. i tried searching for k.o., ko, and k-o, and none of them are allowed, yet hi-lo is! i also sometimes remember a unique word i used in a post, and i want to view that post/thread, so i type in the word, which is also usually denied

I think "KO" is to common and therefore you get no results. But I agree. A feature like "any" or "all" like in other forums would improve the search function. Don't know if it`s available for vbulletin.

Just use google to search then. In the search box type site:www.blackjackinfo.com/bb and then whatever it is you want to search for.

Then you can use any words you want with all sorts of different combinations.

ps. A side note, search for your screen name (i pretty much us the same screen name for all my different accounts), I get more results than if I search for my full name!
