According to your routes.php file it is supposed to work.

1. You are not catching forum URL at all
2. If 'forum' directory/file exists, URL is not rewritten to Laravel's index.php

routes.php (I used this one in the test case)

Route::get('{slug}', function($slug){
    return $slug;
});

File structure

|- app
|- public
|--- index.php // Laravel's one
|--- forum // directory for forum files
|------ index.php // Forum's one
....

Using this structure, URL is not rewritten to Laravel's routing index.php file. If I rename/remove forum folder URL is rewritten then.

Does it work for you?
