    vbforums.com <> www.vbforums.com

    They are treated as two different domains.

    As I understand it, vbforums.com and www.vbforums.com as still considered the same domain.

    I think its just that they've set the cookies to include the www part which screws it over.

    So is this an issue that you guys want me to have someone look into, or are you okay with how things are working?

    Brad!

    I personally like it like this . Suppose there wouldn't be a way you could join all four domains anyway best I imagine possible would be to have two different ones which mean I would still be able to be a guest and a user at the same time so I suppose I'm happy either way .

    Yeah that was what I was trying to get at but I worded it a bit dodgy .
