JK> Wow Baidubot is surely hitting on BBBS' webserver over here :(  Oh
JK> well.. off to inet.bbb to get rid of them haha

you could just deny them access to those links in BBBS that lead to places like
the messages, files and games... they are robots.txt friendly...

JK> I mean, I really don't mind if they hit the main web server here..
JK> but bbbs is limited to only those 7 nodes.

i assume by that you mean that it is similar to apache in that there's seven
HTTP handlers that are allowed to run and you don't allow any more than that??
