Photobucket Search Syntax

Is it just me or is there no filtering in searches on Photobucket? Its seems "additive" not limiting.  Like if I wanted to see a collection of pictures of the V-2 Rocket at the National Air and Space Museum  and searched "national air and space museum german V-2" I would get pictures of every air and space photo ever taken since the Wright Brothers, streudel, and spaced-out people in random museums in a grand total of 70 million images. Iv'e tried tricks with quotes and "AND" or syntax, hashtags and nothing seems to improve performance (if anything it makes the results worse, lol)....any tips from pros that have worked with search engines?

Incidentally, Flickr actually seems to more or less function for searches, perhaps they have a very different kind of search engine?

Photobucket seems to be the digital photo equivalent of the landfill!
