On a site this size, search is an incredibly resource intensive function. That is why the limits are in place, not to annoy you for mispellling werds Just get into the habit of looking at what you typed before clicking the button or hitting enter, and you'll never really think about it again. Finding what you want through search is all about "targeting" your search as well- don't use words that are very common. For example, searching for "Camaro" on here is pretty pointless - probably 40% of every post has Camaro in it Look for EXACTLY what you want, like "disc brake shields."

No that's not what he meant. It had nothing to do with "post count". The minimum post length is something where you have to enter so many characters per post. He was just going to write "no" but that is only two characters, so he added that other line.

There's no search restrictions based on post count.
