			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>I&#039;m far too old to have a proper understanding of these things, and my apologies if you already know all this, but I&#039;ve seen mentions here and there of concerns about the current traffic to this website getting close to exceeding the maximum bandwidth. </p><p>I&#039;ve no doubt you&#039;ve had the foresight to make allowances for the increased traffic caused by running a stats server, but have you considered the traffic generated by people using search engines to look up &quot;First Strike mod&quot;? </p><p>Unless you take steps to prevent it, search engines will scan every part of the site every time a search is made, using up bandwidth each time. I know a couple of clans that have fallen foul of this.</p><p>This forum is huge; there are 57 pages of threads going back to January 2006 in the General Board alone! Surely, many of those threads are now completely redundant and can be deleted. I understand you can also block search engines&#039; access to certain parts of the site, too.</p><p>It could make a hell of a difference to the volume of traffic you&#039;re getting...</p>]]></content>
