small word search

It seems that the search requires a minimum of 3 or 4 characters. This makes it kind of difficult to search for posts on, say the VT 3 or Aeris AI.

Why the limitation?

It is 3... so you can search for vt3... just not vt 3. It used to be 4 - and we backed it down to 3, but any lower than that, it pounds the resources of the server to go through that many posts looking and would slow down the board.

Sorry - but we're kind of stuck with the 3 letter minimum.
