Because Google has a few hundred thousand machines doing a predictive guess on what you searched for so it found relevant threads to what your searched for.

Google how ever doesn't have access to the Customer forums so it can't help you there.

Bottom line. The limitation is MySql not IPB. Learn the default operators to do a search or keep being frustrated. (Advanced Search even tells you them) They've been pretty standard for years. At least then you'll get results you can use.

Even Google supports them for Power Users. Problem now is Google has made search via their engine so easy every tom dick and harry thinks it should be that way on every site. Give every site a few billion dollars to develop and run their predictive search clusters and that might happen

(Yes I'm being sarcastic)

I have opened another ticket and have checked that box, because my CPU loads are very high and site very slow for the past 2 days.

Hello,


It's difficult to address these matters in public. We keep logs, e-mails and all electronic communication -- I found yours from 2007 in which the transaction receipt was provided indicating the new owner paid you for the licenses and you authorizing the transfer (you specified "2 licenses.") This also had verification of your client area password, establishing that you were actually making the request. We do not allow a single license transfer - you may only sell the account, which is what you did.

This is exactly why we discourage license transfers to be honest. Many times, someone will sell a license, decide they wish they hadn't and then return, often years later, to reclaim it. We then dedicate hours of research time to determine who the rightful owner of the license is -- and 99% of the time, the current license holder is the rightful license holder.

I'm sorry you did not like the outcome of our investigation. You're free to contact me with any questions or concerns, however, this is not the appropriate place for further discussion.

Thank you.

back in 2004 & 2005 I bought a Invision Power Board (IPB) lifetime license from Invision Power Services.

I then shut down my IPB site for a few years because I didn't have the funding to keep it up

It's now 2009 and I found the funding to put my site back online so I went into my Invision Power Services client account to get IPB 3.0.5 and my Invision Power Board (IPB) lifetime is misisng form my account. I sent a ticket to the Invision Power Services staff about this and all they say is they found where i bought the 2 Invision Power Board (IPB) lifetime licenses from them but both Invision Power Board (IPB) lifetime licenses were sold & I know this is not true I rember I sold the one that was bought in 2005 a few mounths ago but I didn't sellt he one that was bought in 2004 so I sould still have a Invision Power Board (IPB) lifetime license in my account but they are saying I don't.

So anyone who is looking to buy IPB do your self a big favor and don't because if this happened ot me then who knows how many other clients they have done this to.
