I was searching for "web comics". It was the title of a post I made polling people to see what their favourite one was. Since I was bored I thought I would go and look at some I hadn't seen before. :shuriken:

I believe it has something to do with the forum software using MySQL, which has this limitation.
They should use an exclusion system like google for common words, without the arbitrary 3-letter limit which excludes a multitude of useful abbreviations.
