1/3 of the time it's showing seemingly completely random stuff, such as this(image)

I do know about this issue and it fixes itself after some time. I have no idea what causes it but if you alter the range (age) it should be fine. I oscillate between 1 and 2 days of age, typically.

It seems like 1/3 of the time it's showing like 10 results at most.

A single result will appear for each thread. The reason is since the search targets only threads, rather than posts. You will have to delve into each of the threads to find all the quotes. Hence, if you are in only ten threads with heavy discussion you will only find out when your name is mentioned next (but not any previous times).

Go into the search tab and then write your name as a keyword. Put it in quotes for more relevancy and sort it by most recent (or whatever you would like). Then set the age appropriately.

Addendum: remember that it will only fetch the most recent reply if you sort it this way. If you are looking for all quotes within a certain thread, you will have to look manually. All this does is tells you whenever there is a recent post containing your name but not how many recent posts there are.

Hmm, I'm getting really inconsistent results lately with this!

and then finally the last 1/3 it's actually showing me posts in which people has quoted me.
It's not changing no matter how many times I try to search, it seems to be like these results last for a specific duration?
If I try go search a few hours later it shows something else.

this is what I search for:
Search For: "BQ"
Search Order: Most recent topics first

at first I assumed the search engine was being modified or something, but this has been going on practically since I started searching.
anyone know what's happening? Huh

It seems to work, thank you!

I might be a bit stupid, but I can't seem to find somewhere see replies to my comments?
Show unread posts since your last visits = a ton of posts not related to my comments.
Show new replies to your posts = seems to just be replies to a thread I've posted in?
Watchlist = I went through some threads to see if someone had quoted me, but it seems like not?

I like to try and discuss things, but I can't seem to find way to see if someone quoted me, so I can continue the discussion without going through all these posts in 'Show new replies to your posts' or 'Watchlist'?

Thanks
