Default newbie question :(

Sorry for the silly question.... but I'm defeated by the internet once again....

Is there a way to use the search function with + etc. to include all words when looking for words that Vbulletin deems "Too Common"

For instance.... I want to look for people selling "Let The Right One In" in the trade forum..... without starting a new WTB Thread.... but I can't search using that because all the words show up as "Too Common"

Any Ideas?

The asterisk is just a wildcard- it will bring any combination in of the letters directly before and after it. It won't help with "too common" words.

Personally... no offense, but the search engine on vBulletin REALLY stinks.

no offense taken.... I didn't write vBulletin

Anyways.... adding the asterisk (can only do it with words 4 letters or more... so in this case "Right" was the only one I could do it for) Just brings up a lot of Righteous Kill results...... but it did pull some "Let The Right One In" results.... but I think it may have missed some... but who knows..... either way, right now the only method I can use to search, and find results is

Right*


Either way...... I'll find it eventually

wait for them to add back in the original subs before buying it.

and, I also hate the search here...didn't know about the asterisk thing..good to know.

O.K..... I know there is bound to be a large discussion of the subs going on somewhere....... but in either case.... HOW different are the subs? I really enjoyed the film, and if it gets a re-release, I'd happily pick up the "Botched" version here from someone for cheap


EDIT:

O.K. Found it here

Looks like they butchered the subs.... but it doesn't take away from the movie too much in my opinion
