CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Bots are drawn to pings that occur with each post. So forums make lots of pings and draw bots like flies to index the posts and classify the content found. You can search 4 of 5 words of any post in quotes and ChristianForums will be a top search result. The bots index these posts pretty fast and have them in the various search engines quickly.
I have "I Robot" with Will Smith" recorded and can just watch that movie over and over.

Pings were a big deal when first discovered by the public. A number of entrepreneurs offered to ping your website to get it into Google quicker. In hours instead of weeks. Any change to a webpage creates a "Ping" that alerts the search engines that new information has been posted. When the "Robot gets here" it follows all the links on a page as well and indexes those pages into it's memory. I don't know how "deep" a search engine goes. A good question for the internet.
