3 letter words cause this. That's why the search engine warns you to use words with at least 4 characters. To kick out words like:, in, for the, and.
Those words don't contribute to the search one bit and shouldn't be used for searching anyway.
If you try doing a search like "bump mapping tutorial for urban terror" you get the same result. If you just take out the "for" part it returns a "no match was found".
Which in the end is correct.
So the tip is right, it just has to be combined with the previous " minimum 4 characters" rule.

The tip is giving an example. If a person that uses the search engine isn't intelligent enough to understand how the search engine works and the line within the quotes is there just to show how to conduct a phrase search then I'm surprised that person doesn't forgets how to breathe.
