Thanks, Will, but no, this doesn't fix the problem. The URL I found had two adjacent &s: state=threads&board=cult.tamaraswift&&sort=T
I think whoever made this URL ment for sort=T to join in, but your code doesn't let it. I only get state and board. Any ideas? (I'll look into it more closely myself later on, but I'm off to bed right now).
