306506 2004-12-22 11:32:00 Well how about telling robots not to crawl the site?

They did that on the old forum...

306508 2004-12-22 11:42:00 Problem is that we don't have a /robots.txt file. The old server, I think, told robots not to follow links and not to index content.

It's really up to the admins, I guess. It provides publicity for IDG if this forum turns up in search results (in which case even the admins might not have control - it could be an order from higher up).

Perhaps there's a way to filter robots from showing up as guests? That could be something for the gnomes to investigate when they get back. :D

306509 2004-12-22 12:53:00 Interesting,a google for Metla brings up a dozen recent threads from this forum.They sure where onto this forum quickly.

And a couple threads from smilecity where someone with the same username was making a pratt out of himself.:confused:

306512 2004-12-22 21:16:00 Googlebots - that is what has been visiting us in large numbers :D

There is a tribe of them now crawling the site which is why we have a rather large number of "guest" onboard :rolleyes:
You had to stay up late just to find that out, didn't you Jen? :p

306513 2004-12-25 23:57:00 Have just noticed this thread, and that I am listed among the ones online.
Maybe the PF1 clock was getting the Xmas spirit early and misreported the time, as I certainly wasn't one of the 263.
Still, whatever the time really was, that's a good number.
