Hey guys, hoprfully not a stupid question but when i have a problem i look at the forums ect and use the serarch option. When i find a solution and click the link i get put back to the home page of the forums.

It's not a stupid question, and thanks for at least trying to search :)

It's a feature of the fairly recent change of software used by these forums. Some things turn up in a search - or are linked from other posts - but the threads don't exist where they used to.

If you find any broken links in a sticky, please reply to that thread so whoever maintains it can fix it.

If you really can't find what you're looking for with a search then post away on the newcomers forum. People will appreciate that you've at least tried to help yourself before posting.

Nope, not a bad question to ask, the issue here is any dual-boxing.com/forums/ link is invalid since we moved to VBulletin. The posts need to be updated / fixed. There are people who are currently working on redoing / reworking stickies, but it's a big task to undertake.
