How do I make that page redirect to:

http://mydomain.com/this-thread.php

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction! I've seen other sites do this I just don't have any clue where to look...

Put the following into your .htaccess file
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} ^/forum/.*$
RewriteRule ^/forum/(.+)$ http://mydomain.com/$1 [L,R]
