Is the board adding a dvdtalk affiliate link to URLs?
In my thread http://www.dvdtalk.com/forum/showthr...hreadid=234977 at the end was a link to the new Office Depot store at Amazon. When I posted it, it didn't have "/dvdtalk" at the end, but that's what shows up. Obviously, I don't have a problem with the board doing that, although I never noticed it before.
However, it prevents the link from working.
, which I would think is a problem-kind of defeats the purpose.

Yeah it looks like the forum software automatically adds the DVD Talk tag to anything it thinks is a link to an Amazon product. Not sure if it does this for other sites too. It would work for individual item links, but for general browse links, like yours, it's no-go, it seems.
