In areas updated to Server 1.27 if you enter a word into Events Search it only pulls up items with the search term as the first word of the title. Prior to update on 15 July 2009 and on areas still running server 1.26 it pulls up items with the search term anywhere in the title which is expected behaviour.
This is easily reproducible
1) In a sim running Server 1.27 enter the word sale in the events search box and press search. Only items with sale as first word in title appear
2) In a sim running Server 1.26 enter the word sale in the events search box and press search. Items tems with sale anywhere in title appear
This bug makes searching for Events except by time or category unuseable. For example searching for a particular singer or genre becomes impossible as their name or the genre may not be the first word in title.
Places search continues to work as it previously did pulling any word from the title.
