the real reason behind QBN's filter to not ever work is just for you to get more frustrated and have to click click and click for more hits to the site..

imagine the filter would work: you immediately find what you need, and who would then make another thread on the same question? it would be like a world without lawyers!

writing a good search engine is hard, especially when you don't want to melt your database server.

- just one fulltext search on millions of rows will cripple your server if you don't know what the hell you're doingacescence

Searching is difficult.
Maybe QBN needs to use something like apache Solr to do the job.
