Search not finding threads

[elephant]

A quick search of "JWM" comes up empty despite threads with "JWM" in the title.
A search for "joewing" finds the threads.
Checking "search only titles" does not help.

I suppose there is a minimum amount of the characters to be entered to the search actually works, but this is just a guess. I've experienced trying to search things with such little mount of characters and not finding anything too.

For those searches, I just use google with site:forums.freebsd.org

Apart from the Google solution (which is a good one!) there's also a difference between quick search and advanced search; sometimes that can also give you different results.
