There are many reasons why a match may not return what you're looking for, as many channels do not provide detailed information in their default (public) profile, and many of these fields allow free-text input in any language which is difficult to match precisely.
There are many reasons why a match may not return what you're looking for, as many channels do not provide detailed information in their default (public) profile, and many of these fields allow free-text input in several languages - and this may be difficult to match precisely. For instance you may have better results finding somebody in the USA with 'country=u' (along with some odd channels from Deutschland and Bulgaria and Australia) because this could be represented in a profile as US, U.S.A, USA, United States, etc...
Future revisions of this tool may try to smooth over some of these difficulties.
Requests may be joined together with 'and', 'or', and 'and not'.
