Them bots

Are registered users. Or at least register as such.

How come?

Pirates, vampires, zombies, ninjas, ghouls, aliens, goblins, monsters, robots, sorcerers, undead, werewolves, demons, mutated dinosaur-cyborgs and those pesky phone salesmen! The shotgun is a one-size-fits-all solution!
The phpBB forum software corrals all the bots into their own group, to allow them easier access when spidering the board for content. It basically allows them to be "members," and therefore be able to see all the content a member would see, without having any posting rights, or any other access at all besides doing their spidery business. :)

Spiderbot, Spiderbot
Does whatever a spider ought
Search the web, night and day
Finds our Tex along the way

Look Out! Here comes the Spiderbot!
Never too late for coffee, never too early for beer.
Lol, nice one Gary. :D

It also helps in Search Engines... Someone looking for something in Google, that happens to be something we discussed in a General Thread would come out in their search... Maybe not in the top searches, but somewhere down the line a link would lead them here if they found it and clicked it...
