I note that as well as the actual users in the 'active users' box on the front page of these forums it lists the search spiders currently indexing the site - google and yahoo often turn up there. But I've also seen 'facebook' there. Are they indexing here too? For what purpose?
 
Because :

  • you can log-in with your facebook account.
  • you can "like" a topic.
  • there is a synchro that's possible between the forum and facebook account


That's why the facebook bot access the forum sometimes.
 
i use my facebook to log in but thats cause i didnt want to make yet another usr name and password. ive already got more than i can remember
