Problem Details:
I am searching for one person and osu webpage gives me other.
How to find person in this webpage without using osu client?


Video or screenshot showing the problem:
1. http://puu.sh/quyxb.jpg (searching for 13437 nickname)
2. http://puu.sh/quyF9.jpg (gives me this nickname instead)
3. http://puu.sh/quyHJ.jpg (the one I want to find)


osu! version: 20160805.3 (latest)

Hmmm, It seems it thinks you are trying to search via using account numbers. You could probably replicate this by someones name being the same as someones already existing user account number. I don't know of any other users with a name like that to test it with. But I'm going to say this is probably not intended.

As said by Dntm8, is not intended but it's a bug. KillerJaguar is exactly the user #13437, the search system take into account the following order: https://osu.ppy.sh/u/(the user you search here)
Example, if you put this number "5675919", if will appear your profile because you're the user #5675919

You can use the another search system at the left side of the user search

In order to use the "Google Custom search" effectively, Type "13437" and then add " 's profile " so it's "13437's profile"

Should show up that way.

Thanks, You're a lot better at finding stuff than me. I don't think I'll mark this thread as a dupe though, Since the old thread is archived and old and got no response.

Just going to leave this one as is, Kinda in limbo. As I'm not 100% sure if it's intended or indeed a bug. Either way, I disagree with the current system, which will most likely change on the new site anyways.
