Lately I tried to post a link on a Trad Gang page on Facebook. Some friends were asking me about the bow swap an I thought the best way would be to post a link on the bow swap thread. But all I get when I try to klick that link is this message "You are attempting to reach a page that does not exist." Any ideas what I can do about it ?

what's the exact coding of the link you're posting?

Hi Rob, I just wanted to post a link to the thread of the bow swap, which looks like this
"http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=125;t=009363;p=1".

But for some reasons facebook is converting it into this
"http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic%3Bf%3D125%3Bt%3D009363%3Bp%3D1".

And this is not working anymore. It seems that only the ';' and the following '=' are converted. Why does it do that and if it has to, how can I do it in a way it's still working ?

andy, without a doubt that sure is a facebook issue, dunno anything about facebook and avoid those "social media" forums like the plague.  ask facebook about this.

just out of curiosity, i pulled up my dead facebook account, resuscitated it, and posted your link above.  worked just fine - both the link and the image it pulls in (from trad gang) are hot and function as they should.
