My experience with search this morning:

I noticed the post time bug has returned, and I knew I had started the thread reporting it the last time it happened, so I go to Tech Issues to find that thread. I knew the title contained the words "time machine bug", so I search for time machine, machine, time machine bug, and time bug, and the thread does not show up in the first several pages of the ~1900 results each search brought up. If I put in "time machine", I get no results. I'm assuming search did not find the thread at all, as it seems to me that titles are not being searched.

Now that I've posted to the thread, I've tried searching for it again, and it STILL does not appear when I sort the results by date, even with a recent post.

(I had to use the Google search option, and that worked. The thread was the second thread linked. What was the first thread linked? The archived version of the thread. )
