yerssot
Yep, new thing

when I type http://forums.killermovies.com I end up at killermovies.com; strange, I think

Raz
How did you post this message? What URL are you using?

yerssot
Magic smile
from killermovies.com you have on the right a list of 'recent topics' of this board and that's the way I can get in

Raz
I haven't got the foggiest idea why that would happen. Any one else experiencing the same problem?

yerssot
guess it's again such a Yerssot-problem sad

Ratcat
I may be able to shed some light on this. If the 1st part of the Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN) doesn't match to a live domain then it defaults to show the contents of FQDN www.killermovies.com

For example, all of the following links will end up displaying the content of www.killermovies.com.

http://test.killermovies.com
http://o.killermovies.com
http://forum.killermovies.com

Therefore if yerssot is making a mistake when typing in the URL, such as http://forum s.killermovies.com or http://forrums.killermovies.com then it will default to show the website. It may also happen if there is a DNS issue with his ISP, though I think the likelyhood is more a typing mistake or a damaged shortcut.

This is a failsafe in the FQDN functionality of the webserver being used and happens because the base domain http://killermovies.com appears to be the actual container, or at least is on a redirector, for the main website.

Raz
I can't belive that after more than 1500 posts, yerssot hasn't still bookmarked us!

Ratcat
Which is NOT what I said. roll eyes (sarcastic)

Bookmarks may be corrupt or he could just be pulling the forum out of his History list.

Non of which actually changes ther fact that my previous post is technically sound and presents the facts as the server currently operates.

Yerssot, I suggest that you try this link and if it works then rebookmark it.

http://forums.killermovies.com

Raz
I never said your post wasn't 'technically sound'. I was pointing out the fact that if yerssot was typing out the URL, its probably not in yerssots bookmarks! Geeeeez!

Ratcat
Raz, you really need to chill. I never implied such a thing.

Raz
Take a chill pill? I guess I better...

Ushgarak
I think yerssot can be forgiven for not having a bookmark after all the recent URL changes.

yerssot
Well, I book-marked it, but I don't know how it comes that I have to go true killermovies.com (which isn't that bad big grin )
And I already checked a few times what I type

Lara
what the hell is a bookmark on this site?

yerssot
if you bookmark it, you can go to favorites and select it there, or take it as a mainpage for the startpage

Lara
oh! I've already got this site in my favourites.

yerssot
same here; and you are also there...

Ushgarak
The special 'Lara' page, eh?

yerssot
it's not a page, more an entire book

Lara
confused sorry I dont follow what you are saying!

yerssot
you are in my special page...
*starts to blush*

Raz
Please keep that sort of stuff to PMs or emails.

And keep support stuff on this forum.

Closing...
