blast_hardcheeseSo, what's the deal with ubuntuforums requiring registration?00:41
blast_hardcheeseAnyone?00:48
jdongblast_hardcheese: only the forum archive and attachments require registration02:42
jdongthe reason the archive requires registration was meant to be to hide it from  Google and other search engines02:42
jdongthough it seems to be a royal pain in the ass to convince them to stop believing they have those pages indexed now02:42
jdongwe were asked by the Kernel Team, along with other teams, to do this, because Google kept on turning up out of date and inaccurate HOWTO's for common search terms02:43
blast_hardcheesejdong: blarg. That makes sense, but should probably be explained on the "ACCESS DENIED" page so it doesn't just make you guys look like jerks03:19
jdongblast_hardcheese: yeah, we didn't expect that many users to hit it. We thought it'd be a transient thing03:22
jdongwe trusted Google's magic-ness :)03:22
jdongand ugh, that "access denied" page is stupid. But it's vBulletin default. I'll see if any of our web templates people want to update the wording03:22
blast_hardcheeseMuch appreciated :)03:25
