Your forum requires registration to view. Bots can't view your site.

Privacy and hides the warnings from browsers saying the site is insecure. I generally recommend it.

Ok I'll get it today for the three years. But question, why if I have registration to view why I see guest floating around on the forum, aren't those bots?

They are trying to view pages but they can't see anything. Since you have the login private forum option.   They were either following links or old links that were indexed
