Some trouble from the forums today

[deweatherly]

Got a few different errors throughout the morning.

First i got a 403 Forbidden error in the Firearms section.

About an hour later i recieved an error message from my smart filter (DHS USCG "could not connect to hardforum.com")

Later i went to reply to a thread and when i hit submit it sent me to a screen with only the users online and "Mark Forums Read" and "View Forum Leaders" like the hompage but without the threads..

just a heads up to the admins.

i noticed this also. specifically, my bookmarks to the forum were, for example,

http://www.hardforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=106

which got redirected to

http://hardforum.com/?f=106

the following url works correctly

http://hardforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=106

i'm guessing minor mod_rewrite/canonical url yada yada yada.

If I go to the hotdeals sections http://www.hardforum.com/forumdisplay.php?f=28 it redirects me too http://hardforum.com/?f=28

and this is all that shows up.

The url redirects were reimplemented today.

This is the same change as of last year.

Only use http://hardforum.com

No www or use of hardforums.com or www.hardforums.com, they all redirect back to hardforum.com per Kyle, his choice or url use.
