Use a space for the fourth character.

You can limit it to forum results using the "-site:atheistforums.org" modifier. The only drawback is that it takes a few days for things to show up there. A number of sites use a filtered google result as a search option. Perhaps a sitewide google search could be added to the forum somewhere.
I don't think google has access to the whole database do they? I would imagine (read: hope) that the google search is just a web spider?

Correct. Google only indexes publicly visible content.

When you consider the number of 3-character acronyms - or even 3 letter words like 'sex' this seems a somewhat arbitrary cut off point.

I use google for a lot of searches as the forum post search is a bit wonky.

The correct syntax appears to be "Site:name" (without the quotes). e.g. to search atheistforums for rasetsu, type rasetsu Site:atheistforums.org
