Is anyone else having trouble with the "Search" function, or is it just my ISP?

what is the problem you're having? it seems to work as well as it ever works :-)

Hi AX

Someone was just asking about Women of the World the escort agency. I seemed to remember it being mentioned prettty frequently so thought I'd check it out.

My advanced search, against "Amsterdam" was

women AND world OR escort*

So according to the guidelines; women and world must be in all results, and escort may be in there as well (singular or plural or indeed escorting because of the *).

If you try it you'll see how it will show posts with just escort - clearly wrong, and it also delivers 253 pages of results, definitely not right either.

I's a shame a google like phrase enclosed in quotes does not work, then we could try

"women of the world"

and get an exact match only. Now that could be good

I also tried just "women AND world" and got back lots of entries with just the one word women, which is pretty commonly used on this board!

Maybe a tweak or two is needed?
