Something seems like it might be off with the search function. For example:

I was reading this thread and wanted to search for other instances of Elemental Bombardment. So I popped out to this forum and put in the term Elemental Bombardment and clicked search. It said no results were found. I even tried copying and pasting the term from the thread into the search box, but couldn't get any results, not even the very thread that had started my search.

This thread should have been a result too.

+1 to this issue. I think search is borked, stopping tabulating results after 1/21 or 1/22. I have another thread where recent posts are not included in search results.

Yup, we've found the issue (long story but it related to some new features we added and a process that decided to fail silently - while I respect it's ennui, something a bit more dramatic would have been useful) We're testing the fix as part of our normal monthly QA cycle, so they will go live with the monthly release. (A bit over a week, assuming no QA drama). On the plus side, once the process is working again it will automagically find all the previous entries, so everything will get caught up in one fell swoop.
