How to remove the Wordpress sidebar

I need some kind of code to remove the sidebar from one of my pages in a site I made for my guild. "http://bad-karma-guild.com" I need to remove the side bar from the forums page so that there is more of a view space. I found several articles online about how to put the code into your page.php file but the code they want me to replace doesn't seem to match the code in my file. The only line of code which refers to the sidebar in my page.php file is this:



Anyone wana take a crack at this?

Thanks!

 what if you delete the "'/sidebar1.php" or put a forward slash in the first place of all of these lines to disable them? I dont exactly know if this will work, I am totally new to this coding stuff but hey, the worst that can happen is it will not accept the change, I think.....

 It doesn't match your code (I guess) because all themes are different.

I'm not seeing a sidebar on your forum page... did you figure it out?

 Yeah I ended up making another page template for that page.... Thanks guys! Now getting the forums to be large enough to view text/width wise is a whole different ball game!
