Well I tried a number of experiments with searching today and
all of them appeared to work fine. I encountered no issues.
I cannot tell you why you received the results you described without more specific information about how you did your search. Screenshots would be helpful. A good free tool for capturing them is MWSnap.
It can be found here...

Get back to us if you need more help or if you were able to resolve this issue on your own.

It has to do with the mySQL database. It's a known problem that vBulletin has always had when you switch your forums to a better server - usually a dedicated or shared server.
I have the same problem on my forums, but I say screw it. No one actually uses it anyways.

Well, here at ECCIE we run a responsible operation. Unlike you, we respect our members by providing a site that works. The Search feature is one of the most used parts of the site for obvious reasons. We cannot, nor will not, simply say "screw it."
As I stated earlier in this post, the Search feature here on this site appears to be working just fine.
Perhaps you need to spend some more time back at the drawing board.

If you have access to admin, and not moderator status, you can go to the "Maintenance" section and run the program. There is a good chance it could work or at least tell you if you for certain have an issue with the database.

That is irrelevant since no one in this thread has Admin access.
