I did a search for a thread on the film "Taken" and nothing showed, I found it eventually when I did a search for "Neeson" anywhere in a thread. Ive found 2 with "Taken" in the title this way yet the engine didnt find this word.

The following words are either very common, too long, or too short and were not included in your search : Taken

Yes, unfortunately taken is one of those words like "those, these, and, but, when" etc that are in an awful lot of posts and isn't contextualized to modern trends in a bog standard vBulletin fulltext search.
