I understand a search feature filtering out common words - it's a lot of overhead for an indexer to search and process each instance of words like "the".

Is this something that can be tuned by administrators?

At some point all the words will be too common on this forum, and you won't be able to search for anything other than myxlplyx, and toast (because for some reason we don't make enough threads about toast)

Seriously though the search link should just redirect to a google search with the site set to crawl.devel.org/tavern

Also I guess Makhleb is the most discussed god. Trog has over 9000 results that show up fine.
