Robots.txt exclude

Hey, to forum / site admin(s):

I'd suggest you add a robots.txt exclude file to the root web directory here, and have it exclude the /forum subfolder. If you think about it... do you really want people to be able to do a google search and come up with results and links coming right to the forums? Do you want google caching everything in here?

Just an idea. I see neither the main site folder nor the forum subfolder have a robots.txt exclude file. That means google bot and all the other search engines will index every post in the forum. If you want that... then ok. But, I don't see why you'd want random google searches to link to some forum content.

The more Google indexes, the more our rank goes up, so more people can find us when they search for the hacks they need. =)
Isn't that the reason for search engines? Were helping Google find our content so that they can help searchers find results.
