Bug when going to http://enworld.org/usercp.php

[Asmor]

I don't use bookmarks, generally. To get to enworld, I usually just type e, and scroll down the list of frequently-visited locations to http://enworld.org/usercp.php.

Anyways, a few days ago I noticed that when I did that, I was getting sent to http://www.enworld.orgusercp.php/

Of course, this URL doesn't work. I thought it was just a screwup on my computer, but then I tried it at a computer at school the other day and same thing happened. Using Firefox both times.

I just tried it in IE on my computer and the address bar didn't change, but it said that it couldn't find the server, so I'm assuming it was also being redirected erroneously.

Apparently, the exact URL is http://www.enworld.org/usercp.php?; try using that instead.

I know that already, but the existence of a workaround doesn't make a bug moot.

I don't know why you'd think I said otherwise. ('cause I didn't - see previous post.) Also, using the (currently?) complete address for the page is hardly a "workaround." I can see that switching to it might be a bit of a hassle (depending on, e.g., how long your browser stores - and generally handles - visited addresses), though.

That aside, it's certainly strange that an address that previously worked has suddenly stopped to.

The www. is out-dated and redundant anyways... If you ask me (and yes, I know that you didn't), www.enworld.org should redirect to enworld.org.
