At the bottom of the page there is a thing that says "bots: Google", i'm just curious as to what this means, is it to help promote the forum?

In a way, but they're not controlled by us. Bots are what google, yahoo, msn etc send to websites & forums to check them out then if the site meets their criteria they'll add it to the search engines. So they're a good thing!

When I first heard of them I was like what? There are robots browsing the forum? LOL! I guess they are like robots because they're not actual people!
