Maintenance for the week of April 6:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

Forum search filters out words we're not supposed to search for?

When I search for "collectible, collectibles" or "pet, pets" the forum search will return no results. It's not the length of the word that is the issue here; other words with only 3 or even 2 letters give plenty of results.

So I must assume that is an attempt to control the contents of this forum and make threads about pets disappear faster?

    collectible, collectibles - maybe noone used this words?
    pet, pets - I tried "no pet" and all fine. So, seems you need 5 or more letters.

    "vanity pet" and "collectible achievement" bring back results. Interesting.

    It's not that. You can search for other words with only 3 letters like "dog, hey, pte, tep, etc". Any 3 letter word I've tested works, except for pet. Also, "collectible" has 11 letters. The word has been used many many times in countless threads, for example in the title of a thread that is currently on page 5 of this forum section.

    It appears the problem has been fixed :) Searching for these words is working again now.
