News to methe only thing we can even assume to expect to see is MemberController.php
I knew something like this was going to happen so that's why i said "assume" and not outright say xenForo uses MemberController.phpNews to me
Right, but how does that affect SEO? Seems like the effect could be considerably adverse, since the microlink would be utterly undescriptive as to content....I am kinda hoping we potentially see support for shortning services

It would do nothing. It's just for ease of use, convenience. SEO won't matter, as the original long url is the result of the 301 redirect, and has the canonical url in the header.Right, but how does that affect SEO?

The only benefit here is a shorter link to share with others.
blahblah.com/forum/users.php?userid=12
vs
blahblah.com/u.php?u=12
First one is more likely to get trimmed or goes through "force space after 80 characters" filter, etc.
Which is why I am kinda hoping we potentially see support for shortning services
Example: This thread
http://xenforo.com/community/threads/short-file-names-t-php-instead-of-showthread-php.3477/
vs
http://xenfo.ro/3477
The latter being great for linking, social services, etc. And just fine as a permalink on a board.
Could you send me a link to something explaining more in depth what you are talking about here. Possibly a post if you have made one already. Sounds interesting and it created a possibility in my head and would like to read more to see if what I'm thinking of is actually possible to do.It would do nothing.

Can't get much shorter than that with their domain namehah. for a moment i thought that xenforo.com/3477/ worked as mentioned above. then realized that the domain was xenfo.ro
