I was just wondering if it would be possible to do a search and replace on all the old posts to change http://www.drod.net/forum/* to http://forum.caravelgames.com/*
It would make reading through old threads easier to follow.

With any luck, this request I made would fix all those links in a much easier way. A guy can dream.

Well, that sure would be an easy fix *IF* drod.net would belong to CaravelGames...

But it doesn't.

Actually, it's an easy request, because at the moment, drod.net forwards you to drod.caravelgames.com. So if the link was drod.net/forum, it redirects you to drod.caravelgames.com/forum, so all you need is another redirect to get you to forum.caravelgames.com. Messy, but it'd work.

It'd just be easier to just change the posts themselves;
Unless you do some pretty fancy scripting, a redirect would be very limited

After all there's thread links and who is going to spend all that time, and has access to editing the boards, going to do that?

Much easier to skip the scripting step and replace it with changing the first part of the address to the 'fourm.carvaelgames.com/'
