Suggestions - Let the Leaders KNow How Useless the Search Function Is!

Not directly related to DL for sure, but I find the restrictive parameters on the "search" function to make it difficult as best, and mostly frustrating and useless. I am not sure why you need to have at least four words to search. If I want to search the term "SDC", I should be able to. If I want to search "BE meals", I should be able to.

There is a thread discussing this with the board leaders/owners and I would just urge any of you who agree that the search function parameters are too restrictive and thereby limit its usefulness... well, use that thread to make your opinion known.

I post this here because so many of us do not have the time to peruse too many other FT topics, not to start a big discussion about search here.

True but totally unhelpful.

Use any term (even a 3 letter acronym) and the universal match operator *
Works every time.

As the OP has acknowledged that there is an ongoing discussion in this forum (http://www.flyertalk.com/forum/showthread.php?p=8217853#post8217853), I am going to lock up this one.
