I recently sent my boss information about a piece of equipment I thought we should get and I wanted to send him the link to where it is listed on Film Tech, but instead I had to tell him where to find it on the site.

It is required that everyone agree to the disclaimer on the front page to the forums every time they log onto the forums. I do not beleive there is anyway around this. (I imagine if someone is a super computer genius they might be able to design a hack to get around it but really, what's the point?)

There is a way, but I'm not sure if it falls under the bookmarking rule; I've tested it and it does take you through the disclaimer before reaching the post, but I have had no reason to send anyone directly to a topic and I wouldn't without finding out the official policy. I'm sure Brad or an admin will comment officially soon.

I probably shouldn't have included the forums in my question. I'm more concerned about the articles and manuals. For example, I wanted my boss to check out the Goldberg reels listed under the Reviews section. It would have been much easier to send him the exact link rather than having to count on him understanding my description of where to find it. This would have been especially useful/important when trying to forward information needed to resolve an immediate problem.

Not going to happen.
