Default 2 Forum Names

I have 2 domain names to my forum. The default domain name and a parked domain name. What I would like to know how to do is, when some one follows my forum through the parked domain, is it possible for the forum to show up as another name instead of the default name I have given it?

That would make it look like 2 seperate boards, and would need 2 licenses.

I thought as long as you are presenting the same content to the same audience and not hiding forums from different users, it is seen as one site? Which would only need one license correct? I just have 2 different audiences that are coming to the board. One domain name attracts one audience, the other attracts the other audience. These 2 audience mingle and talk on the same forum, making it one website correct? The only reason I am trying to have the one forum have 2 different names is for seo purposes.

If you are renaming the board (ie. the board title, not only 2 domains pointing to the same board), then you make it look like 2 seperate boards, and it would need 2 licenses.

Thanks for the heads up. I will just keep one forum name in this case so it doesn't violate my LA.

You would also create 100% duplicate content which is bad for search engines
