"Seach" Missing

I have tried tons of things with the database but I just can't get it to work reliably. There are other search solutions like sphinx that I might look into but I can't put anymore effort into this right now.
If you need to find something, google will usually get you there. The forum is well indexed.

Badspot, why is The Forums having so many problems lately?

Well the forums never ran particularly brilliantly to start with, then we switched over to a new server with a different OS and blank config, then in an attempt to speed things up I changed a bunch of tables from myisam to innodb and that may have made things worse.
On top of that we're getting DDoS'd because some losers need to get "revenge" on me for daring to make a game and then not letting them harass everyone on it endlessly.

Wait, we're getting DDoS'd right now?
Holy forget.
Shortcut:
Maybe all this DDoS crap is what that one guy was talking about when he said "the storm was coming".
Joking, joking..

It still shows the fake site links that mirror the forum

that's easily dealt with if you know how to use search engines
you could do what kalph said, or you could add "-biockland" to the end of it, and there's probably some other option, as well
