It would be really nice if you could search for 3 character words, like DVD, VHS, and ps2 in the forums. There are a lot of words with 3 characters worth searching for. 4 just isn't short enough.

(i realize that searches for smaller words are more difficult, maybe if you could only search the tread titles for the 3 char words, instead of all the posts)

actually I have asked him about it already....for some reason the forum software makers for some reason made it that way, yes you can't do 3 letter searches.....BUT.....there is a way to get around that...try this...
dvd= dvd*
vhs=vhs*
usb=usb*
hope that helps...:)

What's it matter what Jelsoft decided? He's free to modify the forum as he sees fit - including changing the minimum number of characters in a search.
