Search results include lots of line breaks
When I do a search on my forum (http://makegamessa.com/) each result includes lots of line breaks between each sentence i.e. if the original post had 2 line breaks the search results has 8!
How can I fix this?

What version of Vanilla are you running?
What plugins are you running?

I'm running: Button Bar, Custom Pages, FileUpload, Flagging, NBBC, Split / Merge, and Thankful People.
I'm suspecting it's the NBBC that's affecting the results but it's approved by the Vanilla Forums staff so I doubt it's the culprit.
Try disabling each plugin on at a time and seeing if that corrects the issue.

When I turn off the NBBC plugin the line breaks reduce from 8 to 4. Removing the rest of the plugins unfortunately didn't help it further.
Any suggestions on what I can do to correct this?
Hmmm... You appear to have found a bug in the Search model (GitHub issue #1083).
I will submit a patch.

I applied the patch and I also removed the nl2br() function from applications/dashboard/views/search/results.php which gave me a lot nicer end result. Thanks so much for the help.
Finally I used this post to add search word highlighting. Thanks for everyone's help!
