in-game search issue

first off forgive me, i've been up a hella long time atm :wacko:

When selecting "Alliance" and you type in for example, "LoSS", and you select "exact phrase" and search it doesn't just give you the exact phrase. It gives LoSS as well as Colossus. Yes i know "loss" is in colossus but isn't "exact phrase" mean that it should only search for "loss" and not everything containing "loss"? I assumed like google typing in quotations would make it search for only things in quotes but that didnt work either. any chance this is a bug or... am i just being too anal at 6:20am? :unsure:

URL when you hit search with "exact phrase" from the drop down on the right is: (and yields 227 results)
[code]http://www.cybernations.net/search.asp?searchstring=Alliance&search=LoSS&anyallexact=exact&Strength1=&Strength2=[/code]

yields the exact same results as when you select "all words" from the drop down on the right. (yielding 227 results, again)
[code]http://www.cybernations.net/search.asp?searchstring=Alliance&search=LoSS&anyallexact=all&Strength1=&Strength2=[/code]

I tried in Chrome, FF, SRWare Iron and Opera but none of them did the search function work properly. >.<

thank ya

The exact phrase feature searches for things that contain exactly that phrase. It's useful when looking up things that have multiple words. LoSS is only one word, so everything is working exactly as it should be.
