Why are there usually 300+ guests visiting this forum, with some of them viewing topics I don't have permission to see?

Bots aren't allowed though, you might wanna ban them for breaking the rules.

They are not actually viewing files normal users can not see. They obviously have to be logged in to get access to those threads. When you look at the list and see that message and it's a guest, they is usually a search engine spider bot that is attempting to spider a URL that is no longer available or is not a valid link and received an error message.

Would that result in a memory loss at all or....? Bots receiving error messages doesn't generally sound like a good thing...?
