Really bad title! LOL

Anyway,

Im thinking of getting rid of my website and just having a forum.

Currently my forum is http://www.gorepit.net/forum/

but I want the forum link to be

http://www.gorepit.net/

How would I do this??

My forum is a folder named "forum" in the public_html folder of my webhost. I was wondering how I could just have a forum only?
 
The best way would be to copy all the files from the forum directory in the your public html directory using an ftp program or by downloading all the files from your forum directory and re uploading them into the public html folder.

That would make the path to the forum yourdomain.net/index.php rather then yourforum.net/forum/index.php
 
If following Fowler's method, remember to change the Script Path in your Admin Panel.

Admin CP -> Server Config -> Server Settings -> Script Path
