Stalker Bots?
By: Rainbow Dash Date: May 16, 2012, 10:43 am

Hello, when I view any thread on my forum, located at
HTML http://mlpforums.createaforum.com/index.php
For no reason, a guest appears, viewing the exact same thread I
was viewing.
Could this just be a thing you guys added, or is it possibly a
bot or something that was targeted to my forum?

Probably a search bot/advertising bot nothing to worry about.

For me, there's a lot to worry about. Those bots prevent me from
knowing how much traffic my forum's got. Sometimes, i start a
new topic and 7 bots are immediately viewing the topic. The
'online today' becomes 7, and even when some of my members login
later in the day, the online today still remains the same! And
it stays so till the end of that day. Please is there any way to
at least reduce these bots?

Possibly a new feature could be added so that the online today
thing only records members who log in

Please is there anything that can be done to stop these 'guests'
I don't see them in this CAF support forum so i wonder why they
should be in my forum
