So all I would have to do is type "L8" and "L84THSKY" pops up.
Actually, the advanced search does work correctly. However, it needs THREE characters before it starts popping up potential candidates. That's why typing "L8" doesn't do anything. If you type "L84" then you'll see it work. However, that sequence is unique to you. A better test of the feature is to type in "bwm" and see how many potential usernames pop-up.
