You must type something in the "Search for:" field.

If I search for your username I get some results...

What exactly are you trying to do? Perhaps explain so we can help you better.

To search for a particular username you must input that username into the Advanced Search -> By User input box. If enter the username into the Search for input box you'll only get results if that user has been quoted in a reply.
