[suggestion] Prevent the forums from being crawled

Postby bedub1 on Thu Jul 23, 2009 12:13 am

Concise description:
  • Search engines should be prevented from crawling the forums.

Specifics:
  • Search engines are great for finding keywords and drawing people to the website, creating hits etc

This will improve the following aspects of the site:
  • We don't want search engines to find the site for the content on the forums
  • We can't them to find us for the game and play etc
  • This will reduce the false-positive hits
  • This will protect our privacy by preventing our forum topics from being "googleable"

Hey man, I find it pretty amazing that if you look up Pokeporn on google, with safe search off in images, then pages 2-onwards are filled with stuff from conquerclub!

It's awesome, IMHO.

yeah...I also found it interesting that if you search for my name on google, you will find pages and pages of the moderators forum that you can't see.
