Is this the same for everyone else? I get sent back to the forums main page. And when typing in the address directly, the only thing on the page is WHAT XD I'm sure this is intentional but it's coming at a bad time as we need one for our band. :(

you could start a topic in the Forum for this purpose, and then ping people to it individually and let them know this is what you've done. That's what my Band did.
