And I still think you should require people to register before they can view.

That probably is possible, although every single vB forum I have seen has "/forums/" Even if I was able to do that all of our pages would get screwed up and it would probably create more trouble then it is worth.

I might require people to register to view the board, but that didn't stop the bots. I even tried closing the forum overnight and it didn't stop them.
