Odd thing with searching

[Q?]

I tried searching for "blu-ray scam" in the search function under Forum, just to see if there is some subjects on it.
It's as if you're not allowed to search for it.
The screen just goes blank for a long time and nothing appears, and then I tried searching other things and they appear instantly.
Why?
I don't believe blu-ray is a scam, I know it's worth the money and I love it!
But are we not allowed, or is there another explanation?
Try it yourself.

You're not being ignorant, that's internet talk for "I don't know." I learned that by being an internet nerd.

I think it's the "blu-ray" part that's throwing the search off. It seems like if I put anything involving that, it brings back a white screen. "blu-ray movies" "blu-ray potatoes", etc.

exactly, most of the search options on many forums do not allow the "-" in a search topic.

Type in "blu ray scam" and you'll get plenty.

I believe the search engine's settings are too stringent. I've tried searching for "best buy ad" to find out what Best Buy was going to have on sale the following week. Sadly, all 3 terms were ignored by the search engine. Is there some way to get it to treat "best buy" as the search string? It might still ignore "ad" but at least it might get me closer.
