One solution would be to set the shrapnelcommunity.com domain up as a virtual host mapped to the same file system location as shrapnelgames.com, rather than a redirection. By doing this, the server will then actually serve the pages from both domains, and people behind vicious firewalls can browse away. Granted, I'm not sure if vbulletin uses relative urls everywhere, or if it uses a domain variable to prefix them, so this may or may not work properly.

I've been using a proxy to drop by during the workday. It works ok, but does mean a few extra steps overall. :P

shrapnelcommunity.com will go away eventually so that's not an option.
