Change in thread id?

This was part of the search engine optimization thingamapooper that bobo put on a while back. I remember there were some problems with member pages, viewing the first unread posts, domain redirects, but most were eventually ironed out, I think. And gamingforce.org/forums/game-circlejerks/9001-new-fire-emblem-niggers.html is infinitely more useful than gamingforce.org/forums/showthread.php?t=9001. I don't really care about the SEO; well-designed URLs are a very good thing.

My problem with the SEO is that there was a link redirection thing with links in private forums where the board software would give a blank referer, which means that I couldn't make links to music in My Stuff and Audio Requests that would only work when followed from GFF. I know the reason: letting gamingforce.org/forums/my-stuff/35711-itt-we-hotlink.html show up in referer logs would expose the hidden forums, but I don't support the SEO unless the redirection can be turned off.

Jam it back in, in the dark.
