Why not delete the bots?
Why not delete the bots?
Why don't you delete the bots from the user list, Toff? Also, I assume you have the server space, so you could also put the robots.txt file on the server to prevent the bots from showing up. Just a suggestion.

Re: Why not delete the bots?
I can hide them, sure, but I don't see the need for that. :\ They're not in the memberlist, they have their own special accounts, it's easy to tell they're bots. At times I'm curious when a bot is on the forum and what it's doing, as well as what search engines have already found our forum, so I personally don't want to hide them. And if I completely forbid them the access, search engines will no longer be able to index our forum correctly, why would I do that? They already don't have access to our guild section, I think that's enough. I can make them visible only for administrators, but I don't know if other members don't want to see them as well.
