Searching appears to be somewhat broken at the moment.
If a search word is set, and then some checkboxes are deselected (example: searching for "gundam" with only the "series" and "movie" checkboxes selected), the checkboxes are being reset and not applied to the search. (The first two results, in fact, are soundtracks. Shouldn't having the "soundtrack" box deselected prevent a search from returning soundtracks?).
The same behavior is being displayed for the tag checkboxes. Deselecting lossless and dual audio checkboxes should prevent returning of search results with those tags. However, when the search button is pressed, the checkboxes are reset to default (checked) and the search results include those files.
Also, searching seems to be returning inaccurate results for some searches. A search for "Special A" (with quotes) should return Special A Manga, Special A xVID release, and Special A h.264 release
I have tested and can replicate these issues with the following operating systems/browsers.
Windows XP SP2 - Firefox 3.0.10
Windows XP SP2 - Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.13
Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 - Firefox 3.0.10
Windows Vista Ultimate SP1 - Internet Explorer 7.0.6001.1800
Ubuntu 9.0.4 - Firefox 3.0.10
Mac OSx 10.5 - Safari 3.0.4
The fact that it can be replicated on multiple machines running several different OSs and browsers seems to indicate that the problem is on the site end rather than on my end. (Yes, I did completely flush the cache on all machines before testing). However, it is possible that the problem is with my router/internet connection, since all of the test machines use the same hardware there. I do not believe this is the case, since the only problem is erratic search behavior on a single site. A hardware fault on the router/cable modem should cause more significant problems than that.
Oh, and the amorphous plates are wiggling.

cheezgrater, we're aware that the search function is completely naffed up. We're actually in discussion on how to improve it at the moment and hopefully we'll see a fundamental change within the next two years. =D
Also.. For a first post, I've fallen in love! Someone how has read the Wiki! -tackleglomps with tears in his eyes-

Srsly though, what would be the point of me trying to tell you something is broken, if I don't give you enough information to be able to fix it.
I wish I could offer more help in *fixing* the bug rather than just finding it (and I apparently "found" a bug that you already knew about...that's what I get for trying to be helpful), but my experience is all limited to desktop support.
Have you had your gelatinous fish taco today?
Chiyachan:
Here's a secret... I rarely read the Wiki. >_>
I just tell people to read it and hope it's actually there.... <_<
But aye, Jarudin has plans to make searching all the moar awesome... Infact, it might have borked cos he's playing. I honestly don't know.
Thankies for pointing it out though, it means Jarudin -has- to work harder and faster before moar people notice. >_>

While updating my profile I found this bug
I used FF3.0.10 and IE7.0.5730.13

edit:
Another issue:
It's right to assume that you get a message when a torrent (you're leeching/seeding) gets swapped, right? Then, could it be that the message system is broken?
Or has it been changed to adding the torrent to the Notify-list? Hmm, but iirc I got a system-message for a torrent I commented on that it was deleted some time ago.
For instance, I was downloading a manga pack and the uploader added some oneshots and swapped the whole thing. But I noticed that only after randomly checking the comments of the torrent.
