this is a thread to attract SE4 forumers to the first Dungeon Oddessy roleplay thread

[Jack Simth]

Just to the thread; for example, the URL to jump to the second page of this thread is
http://www.shrapnelgames.com/cgi-bin...;f=23;t=009207

Let's brake this down:
The server:
http://www.shrapnelgames.com/

The directory the page is in:
cgi-bin/

The web page itself:
ultimatebb.cgi

Signal to start feeding variables into the page
?

Variable: ubb: the action being taken: Get the topic.
ubb=get_topic;

Variable: f: the number of the forum the thread is in.
f=23;

Variable: t: the number of the thread:
t=009207;

Variable: p: the page number of the thread to view:
p=2

Unfortunately, the page number is measured from the most recent post; for now, this is page 1 (p=1); the page with the post that started the topic is on page 3 (p=3). If thirty more Posts happen, then the page with the post that started the topic will be on page 5.
You could link to a page that has a particular post, but it would require going back and editing the URL every 15 Posts in order to keep it up to date.
