Search feature....

Is it currently turned off, or is it broken?

Seems to be working ok for me. Is there a particular search argument which didn't work?

A possible explanation is that tyme moved the DB to the new (old) server this morning so it might need to be reindexed or it is in the process of being done. I dunno.

OK, it only seems to be returning results for messages posted today, so it appears to need to be reindexed.

Yes. It does. I'm really tempted to gut vbulletin's searching (just the keyword part) and redirect it to google.
