Bah, it depens how you type it, if you type spazzy macgee like your space bar is broke then yeah :lol:
Nah like I said, the admin can't do anything about that, they have an automatic redirect link, so they have done everything they could to fix the problem :)
Well, far short of actually changing the link itself, but then the new google search wont work, it's 6 of 1 and half a dozen of the other :frusty:
Jonno :cool:
The board is called FileSharingTalk not File Sharing Talk. :P

The point is that that link http://www.filesharingtalk.com/ is what is advertised on most sites that link to us and the first result on my google search. You try getting anywhere form that front page
Admittedly if you had the index.php? bit to the end of you get redirected but thats not the point for newcomers is it :no:
No. The google search won't change. It will always have www.filesharingtalk.com as the first item when searching for filesharingtalk.Quote:

@Dan........No, I'm standing up for the board, I get nothing out of this except a place to go and have a giggle with me mates :01:
Jonno :cool:
You gotta click stop if you go to that page in IE...now what noob is going to know that? i'd just get annoyed and find a different forum.Quote:

I don't think so but even if that is the case then we would need traffic to make that change happen. Now there's a real catch22.Quote:

Click stop?
It takes you to the homepage like most links do :blink:
Jonno :cool:
Have you actually tried getting to the forum by clicking on that front page :frusty:Quote:

Code:<meta name="keywords" content="file sharing, forum, file sharing forum, bittorrent" />
If you run Internet Explorer then click the link, you'll get nothing but a blank blue page. If you press the stop button in the browser then you see the page.Quote:

A great and active online community
Link at top of page :rolleyes:
As for Google, the more google bot comes in here the more it will need to use the new link, therefore it wont be using the old one so it will drop and the new one rises :frusty:
Jonno :cool:
hmm but it's getting redirected through the old link so it thinks the old one is active doesn't it? :unsure:Quote:

Well arent you the lucky one Jonno, everyone else that tries to use the community link gets it buggering up :rolleyes:
@Rosco....No because googlebot will no longer use that link, so it will be picking up the keyword "filsharingtalk" from the new link :)
@VB........How much? :) and how long? I say it will be different within 4 weeks :)
I'm not saying the old link wont be there but I am saying there will be a direct link to the forum it will be with the new link and will be higher on the list :)
Actually thinking about it, I don't know what's wrong with it now, it takes you to the home page :blink: this forum is only part of the fliesharingtalk.com site :unsure:
@Dan......It's slow admittedly, but it is on my aol too this morning, on IE everything loads, just a bit slow :)
Jonno :cool:
I have sat there with it loading since we first started this argument this morning :lol: Still no joy :(Quote:

Ok this is an impossible argument cos it works for me but not for you, so no more can be said, I hope your problem gets fixed :)
Jonno :cool:
Ok the wager...
If www.filesharingtalk.com/vb3/index.php? appears above www.filesharingtalk.com in a google search for filesharingtalk in 2 months (if we're still here ;) ) then I will publicly apologize to you.
If www.filesharingtalk.com stays above www.filesharingtalk.com/vb3/index.php? then you'll publicly apologize to me.
Care to wager on these terms?
Note: Current search results are: http://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&q=...e+Search&meta=
You're on *vertual handshake* :)
Jonno :cool:

Wonder how long until/if it gets put into use? :unsure:
Hang on a minute, I had a thought, that .com link does'nt bring you to the forum, it takes you to the homepage which is what it's suppose to do, so what the hell is everyone moaning about? :blink:
Jonno :coo:

:coo:
:lol: :lol:
@Dan.........No, we done that bit, it works fine for me :)
Pffft, and you lot are constantly on at me about aol, well this time aol has pwned the lot of you :01:
@Manker........OFF TOPIC!!! I'm reporting you for that :shifty:
And we had the discussion on taking the piss out of spelling mistakes, it means you have no argument because you don't understand, therefore have to find fault in order to make yourself look bigger :P
Come ON!!! :01: Anyone else want some? :lol:
Jonno :cool:
Just wondering, Jonno, look at the bottom under the "Latest News" section (of the front page). Do you see anything there or do you get "Currently unavailable try again later" (or something like that)?Quote:

Edit: I just realised the irony of this post :frusty: Shit
Ya well its almost as much fun, to sign on here and see who's on moderation ,or what posts are closed . Shame isn't it? Good god I'm even posting in joke world .
I havent resorted to posting in Joke World yet although Ive been tempted lately. Anyway after stopping the front page and clicking Community, which should be fkin Forum ffs, it takes quite awhile to get here, to long and most likely Ide have closed the page by then but if I actually had made it that far I may have actually waited I guess...
I still come here, but just not as much as i used to. cuz i downloaded the forum posts into my brain, and now i know everything about everything and nothing. Still fun and informative tho
