You could do forums.blah.com

Have an A record for that pointed to the ip of createaforum.com then use domain manager to update your forum's url

Ok sweet thank you!
And I'm currently trying to park my down my domain on the forum.
but i forgot i parked it on another forum of mine like sotu.createaforum.com
or maybe survivaloftheundead.createaforum.com or something but both of those are broken.
So can you reset that please so I can park by survivaloftheundeadforums.createaforum.com to

So I parked it at survivaloftheundead.com
is that wrong?
Should I do forums.survivaloftheundead.com ?
and should I click the "update forum url" or no?
