    Lol, not aliens from space.. It is a web service to create thumbnails of web pages.
    Someone just generated the thumbnails of your game forums. It is harmless so don't worry... :)

    Seems like someone is using that service to connect to your site and save it as a picture... I guess it depends on on as to if it is good or bad.
