Is it just me being blind or do I remember there being a better search function for the forums?, i.e. search capabilities like vBulletin

On the left pane there is a google box with an option to search the geekzone.co.nz domain.

Not ideal, but probably easy than coding a potentially CPU/Database taxing search program.

Yes, use the search box provided. You can filter to forum only by entering site:geekzone.co.nz/forums.asp at the end of the query.

The main reason is performance, the other is creating an algorithm that could bring results based on fuzzy search queries - Google does it so why not use it?
