Ok, so How do I make it so that UBBthreads is my home page?

In other words. I want to have it so that when people go to www.backofthenet.com it is UBBthreads they see WITHOUT a redirect page. Can this be done?

I'd create an index.php file containing:
Code:
<?php
header('Location: http://www.yoursite.tld/ubbthreadsdir/ubbthreads.php');
?>

OR make ubbthreads.php your start page. Very similar to Default or index.html when administering your website if you own your own server.

Seems like there should be a way to do this in the UBB.t Control Panel.

You could use .htaccess

Using .htaccess, you can define additional index filenames and/or change the order of precedence. To define your index page as ubbthreads.php add the following line to your .htaccess file:

DirectoryIndex ubbthreads.php
