SE's dropped thousands of pages on my PunBB Forum

    Alrighty, I haven't had a problem with punBB in awhile, but just recently, pretty much every search engine dropped numerious amounts of my pages in their index, not just one.

    I have two domains, running on two different IP's, so I can rule out that just one got blacklisted for whatever reasons, and I still can't put my finger on why this happened, it's indexing the regular pages, just not the thousands and thousands of pages on my forum boards (which are both running punBB)

    site:www.cobaltandcalcium.com. Results 1 - 10 of about 274 from www.cobaltandcalcium.com for . (0.14 seconds)
    Total number of topics: 14,899

    site:www.fleethefactory.com. Results 1 - 10 of about 59 from www.fleethefactory.com for . (0.48 seconds)
    Total number of topics: 1466

    I have no idea why this happened, I used to have thousands of pages indexed, and now it's at 274? Any ideas? I don't know if it is the forum software, and that I should switch or what, but my friend also runs a punbb forum, and his pages are indexing fine..

    Thanks~

    I don't think its because of punBB. I know many admins of different software types, including Big-Board admins, with the same problem. The cause? Big Daddy.

    There's not much you can do and also not much sense in worrying about it...what happens happens, all we can do is make the best of it :)
