Rich, what, if any, symbols are included in a forum search? Are search results limited to letters and numbers only? The reason I ask is because I use hashtags (such as those seen on twitter using the #), but I've found that the forum search doesn't recognize # as a valid search term.

Specifically, I search for posts containing "#winning", but the search shows that it searched only for "winning", thus excluding the #. I've wanted to start placing hashtags in posts that I want to earmark for later for reference; is there any specific symbol I could use that would show up in the search results?

Sorry for the tl;dr post.
