Using the wildcard helps (as in PM*).... but by the time a new person has figured that out, he/she has already installed 50+ hacks and doesn't have such a hard time finding stuff here anymore.
Here's another one that's really awful..... searching for IP bans or proxy IP addresses.
Nobody will ever spell that out in a hack title or posts in a discussion thread.
So.... maybe a suggestion might be to add a text line on the search display page giving PM* and IP* as specific examples of how to do wildcard searches?
(Oh darn. I came across this thread while looking for something. Wondering now -- what was I searching for?? I think it was important, too..... :cross-eyed: )
