First it says it is searching. Then it gives me the error message.

Something seems very odd with the search...
I search for "barb*" in the thread title of all Civ 3 forums and get this...
In case people don't notice what's odd about it, read a few of the topics of the threads...

It seems as if the "including this words" is translated to resource and a number (tipical php behavior with bad typecasting)
/me hopes Markos will fix this before I need to search for anything

Or at least changes it to something funny. Think of all the amusement in 5 "I *did not* search for animal porn" threads on the first page.

It isn't just searching using the "including these words"option, if you search for something using ANY of the search boxes you get returns for the word "resources".

In addition, searching on my handle nets a grand total of 19 posts, several from 2000.

Yes, I looked for "conservative sequel" and no matter in which of the four search fields I entered it (and regardless of whether I used qoutes), I always got the same querie with the same results: Resources OR 17 OR conservative OR sequel. Not very helpful at all...

Seems like this new whizbang has broken some existing features. My Threads bonked about the same time. The auto-logout problem has become a constant, too.
Hopefully, all will be well again soon.

The search is broken. It forcefully searches for string "resource" no matter what is typed in.
I get this string in the browser window, I hope it helps to track down the problem:

If I search for 'joke' in a/c general, in thread title only, I get this:
