When you get an error while searching and it takes you back to the Advanced Search page and you search again correctly, your results will be reversed (ascending instead of descending). For example, search for user "CZroee" (extra e, intentional) with results displayed as posts and you will get an error that there is no such user. It will take you back to the search page again. Search again for CZroe with results displayed as posts and you will see my first ever post listed as the first result. Go to Advanced Search again and search for CZroe with results as posts and you will see my latest posts.

We're running practically stock vB here. Any bug like that is a bug in vB itself, and is not something we're going to be able to fix.

It doesn't do it on any other vB boards I have used and it has done it here since the switch. I always thought it was related to our other search problems (Tapatalk doesn't work, read posts doesn't work right, etc).
