As above. This has been happening since the server upgrade. It doesn't matter what the nature of the hyperlink is, i.e. to a page or to an image, it still redirects. I use Opera 10 if that makes any difference, but it seemed to be fine before the upgrade (and I was using Opera 10 before that).

Anyone got the same problem or know what to do?

Holla holla get dolla.
This is happening in Firefox.
This problem with being redirected to the forum home page also applies when clicking on subsequent pages in the social groups section.

Is it every single hyperlink, or only some of them?

(How are you able to post in this thread without being redirected?)

internal links are fine, i think it's links to external sites that are the problem (or at least links to external sites where BoS is the referring site, so to speak, if that makes sense? )

^^townie's right. I can access some images hosted on ImageShack but not others. Facebook links not at all. Internal links sometimes--I tried to post a link to one of my old posts and when I clicked to check it was the correct link it redirected.

^^Ah but you see, clicking my own links doesn't work. I clicked your FB link and it worked. So I think it's just very irregular but consistent redirecting :confused:
