Exclamation "Search" feature doesn't work accurately

A few hours back, I was trying to look for an old thread which I made ~2 months ago. So instead of going through the vast amount of Ngemu literature which has piled up since then, I just searched for it. I remember exactly what the name of the thread was, but still, I wouldn't get any sort of relevant results. I also tried the Advanced Search option but that didn't yield anything either. This feature worked flawlessly e couple of weeks ago when I first used it, but now, I must say it has become useless.

I ended up typing the name of the thread in inverted commas into Google and hit "I'm feeling Lucky" and what do you know, it landed me exactly where I wanted it

Yup, thread title.

Edit: Is that not supported? It worked before as far as I remember.

Found it! thnx But that was a bit of hard work too (on top of that I'm lazy) Would've been better if the forums adopted a Google search criteria for searching.
