Ah okay. I think I have a modification that would make it work better for me, then. Actually, two different ideas.

First would be an automatic link from the profile (and possibly the community style itself, if the style supported it) to that ...errr, 'first post' (I don't know if this has a canonical name). Maybe it's a tickybox, maybe it just happens if you enable the 'first post' feature, and links directly to that post, with either the title of the post as the link text or some custom text as link text. No real need for a redirect, as it would

Second option, which is a bit more resource/coding intensive but perhaps cooler, would be to give the community maintainer the option to encode a one-word redirect for this type of post. Maybe it's 'rules' or 'community-rules', maybe it's 'listenup' or 'newbies'. I don't want to shoehorn everybody into the same box, but I agree with you that it should be easily findable. Then this redirect is either automagically included in the profile (as described above), or at least becomes a human-readable link that the maintainer can easily link to without having to remember a string of numbers.
