Limit On The Search?

Hi,
why do we have a limit of minimum 4 characters on the search?
this makes it impossible to search for simple things like ebb or dwc etc.

I would love to see it changed.

anybody agree?

or, go to google. Type in your search words, followed immediately by "site:rollitup.org" without the quotes. Not as elegant, but it'll work.

Its because words that are smaller can often bring up many searches, if too many people do this at once then the server will get bogged down.

I'm sure you notice that sometimes the server slows down quite a bit, so having 18k members searching for 2 or 3 letter terms that brings up an endless list of results is going to crash it.
