Forum search not working well for this game specific discussion

Hi,

there starts to be lot of questions and answers on this A Song of Ice & Fire: TMG forum, and if I want to search official answers from CMON employees given in this exact forum area, I do not seem to succeed when using the search in up-left corner.

I can e.g. find latest posts of someone in their own forum profile, but that is not enough (the latest shows only so few). But then if I search e.g. CMON Michael Shinall's posts, I do not get any hits related to this sub-forum, but only to some other sub-forum(s). But if I search e.g. myself, I get the correct hits (I have joined just recently, and only have written in this sub-forum).

Anyone having luck with forum search, searching items related to this sub-forum from CMON employees? What am I doing wrong?

Another example of search not working:
http://www.coolminiornot.com/forums/search.php?searchid=3019404
I search user "Fronx" for text "aligned". I get four results, but this post is not included in the search results, even though clearly it contains word "aligned" written by user "Fronx":

There is slight way around this, and that is by clicking a name of the user in the forum. That gives context menu, where you can select "View Forum posts". But even this is not sufficient, as it only shows the text partially (so you cannot do browser based search for that text efficiently).
