forum.questionablequestiong versus questionablequesting

[Flashbunny]

Hey,

I've just discovered that I was logged into forum.questionablequesting.com and not questionablequesting.com.

This seems sketchy as hell - have I been using some third-party middle man? If not, why doesn't the login persist between both versions?

It's a matter of cookies. They're both the same site.

 

[Flashbunny]

Okay, that's a relief. Thanks!

Yeah, the version without the "forum." in front is just a glitch caused by the XF2 upgrade.

Nah, it's been like that as long as I've been on the site, at least.

For me the plain version redirected to the forums version before the XF2 upgrade.

Why don't they just redirect everything that goes to questionablequesting.com over to forum.questionablequesting.com or vice-versa?

Pretty sure that's exactly what they're doing. Or, to be more precise, they're both aliases for the exact same pages. Not sure why they have both and not just one, though.
