    give thanks ;)
    really, it means your site is being indexed.

    since is your forum, you could add something to the user profile. Like making more prominent the entry page for the forum

    At least it's not a user from another forum that is using the name of your forum as their username. :D

    I've seen that sometimes. Be careful where you post, and what username you use. You could be competing with yourself. :D
