Is there any way to override this functionality?
It becomes a real pain, I have to start doing weird stuff to overcome this
limitation, if it would just return the results whether its more than 50% or
not, I would be fine. Is there no way to do this? Thanks. 


Kind regards,

It's not necessarily the word appearing in more than 50% of thre records. If
you search result returns more than 50% of the records, mysql considers the
result irrlevant and doesn't return anything.
You can kind of test it by using LIKE.

SELECT count(*) from table where field like "%dealer%" or field like
"%contact%"

Remember, by default full text will find records that contain any of the
words you are searching on. If you want to find only records that contain
all the words, you need to do full text boolean search.
