vb.org Archive - How are group links constructed??

Hello:

Does anyone know how links for groups are constructed in vB? Specifically, when you click GROUPS, it takes you to a list of all the groups. Each of the groups names are links to take you to the groups.

It looks like vB drops small connecting words, like "to" and "for" from the links in some cases.

The reason I need to know is that I am pulling a list of the groups with the most members for use on a site other than vB, and my boss would like to make the titles links to the specific groups pages, but the actual titles are NOT the correct links in all cases.

If someone could steer me in the right direction, it would be much appreciated.
