Yeah I noticed that when I was doing my rounds at vbulletin.com. The only thing I don't like is that they are using information locked out to registered users and taking that content and pretty much making money off it. I think they should at least just do what normal search engines do and keep it guest only and following normal bot practice. |

I submitted my site with the stipulation that NO ACCOUNT be created on my site. I still have them blocked by my robots.txt until we get further information.

I allow them on my site. No worries about private forums for only registered users being spidered since these don't exist for me  More traffic the better. |

I submitted my site to them yesterday. I am also having them remove the referal links from the results to avoid any duplicate content penalties. Just signed up last night, not sure how long it will take to start getting indexed.
