Ok, I'm glad I'm not losing my mind. That page keeps flashing every time I change pages. Its just a flash, but its been there for days!

I'm not really sure why the extra forward slash makes a difference in what shows up, but I don't know much about PHP, either.

I think that the way the forum software works is that an admin (namely, Nifty-Chicken) has to give the moderators "powers" (permissions) in each of the forum sections in order for us to be able to edit, move, and delete threads or posts, which is why you would see a list of all of us on that page for each section of the forum -- we all have the permissions to do those things universally around BYC.

That's just a guess on my part, though. Nifty-Chicken would be able to explain it better.
