I created an alliance forum at herebegames.com. I saw that possibility ingame in the alliance management menu. Luckily I tried it what if I click on my alliance name in the alliance rankings menu. It lead me to a website but not to my forums's one. It was some kind of advertising page of herebegames, where I had to click on 'Host Your Own Forums (free)' button to finally reach my forum. I just hope it can be turn off or something and my forums can be reach directly by clicking on the alliance name in the alliance rankings menu. I spent hours to create it and I do not want to start again at an other provider.

Edit: I am not sure that is this topic in th right section. Sorry if not.

Edit: Sorry, I think I know what's the problem. The forum link only work if use this: http://solarisalliance.herebegames.com/index.php but if I use the same link without the last index.php like this: http://solarisalliance.herebegames.com then I got the advertising page. I can not write the full link address ingame into the alliance website address box as it's caracter limit is too little. I wonder if admins could set it longer.

toss your alliance URL through a page like tinyurl.com

use this URL ingame...
http://tinyurl.com/48b8rf

http://solarisalliance.herebegames.com/index.php
