Question:
How would you prefer to locate the forum
need to know. preferring one will not exclude the others from usability (I'm going to make them all useable).

Is it possible to make them all usable? Wouldn't links always lead to one default URL?
Even if the links start with "/" instead of "http://forums.boyah.net/", the two subdirectory URLs wouldn't work

well I meant I'd choose one as the canonical name, then redirect/rewrite the other 3 to it with whatever method is suitable.
i keep clicking the link but it brings me to this thread?
Change it to B.com
I miss when we had a /forum in addition to the /forums :(
I used to go to boyah.net and then click the link to the forums.... Back when there was a link....
forums.net

i was a bit concerned about this as well
but i think forums.boyah.net looks/sounds best
not only does it look the best, but finally the forums would match status.boyah.net n_u

like I said I'll make whichever second choices redirect/rewrite to the one we want ... it won't be messy

wouldn't then we should make it forum since status is singular too
boyah.tumblr.com

speaking of this what the hell is up with that thing right now
what jmv's using it as should be a separate page, blog.boyah.net, with the status page having a move minimal layout and only showing things relating to actual technical issues, or group that with other important info (pm purges, boyah awards, new features) and make it news.boyah.net
jmv should add me as a contributor so i can update it on the boyah awards stuff then :(
I will make it whatever i want it hoe.

it'd have to be written properly to make sure links to already existing threads properly go to those threads.
Otherwise we'll break essentially every post that links to another post.
Why can't we just use boyah.net without any subdomain or subdirectory?
like http://boyah.net/index.php/topic,62014.15.html

i like this the most but figured we wouldn't want to for some reason
let's just do that ey?
Well homepage is never happening so that works.
Goodbye, homepage :'(
most forum softwares make the index a Community Portal thing so ideally (idk if smf 2.0 does that or will eventually) we can still make a 'homepage' that will be integrated with the forum (and possibly social media or other shit) like we've talked about before.
That's a good idea, and we can replace the wiki/aracde buttons with news/blog/status? y/n
