I was looking around the site, and noticed that my introductory thread was being viewed by "Google Ad Spider". What is that? also, what is the rep bar for? Explain anything you can, i'm confused. lol

1st I've heard of the Google Ad Spider so I can't help out with an explanation on that.

Here's a link to a post about the rep power

On the top tool bar of the forum you can also click on search, then click on advanced search and from there find posts if you are looking for something. I use this feature alot myself and it is a great tool.

Doozy or Crossfire can correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe the ad spider is a computer entity sent out by google to keep their search engine as up to date as possible. It was just scanning what you had written so it could be returned as a hit if the right words were typed into their search engine. Make sense?
