I think rather than the redirect to the forums that we currently have kirupa could use a php header function instead that’d do it much faster and nobody’d know there even was a redirect page 😛

Oh - how would that be done? If that will work on all browsers (like that ever happened…even though it is all server-side?) I’d consider giving that a shot.
