    yano what ive just realised, i have no idea what rel=nofollow and follow mean. i've seen these being knocked about abit around these forums but have been clueless as to what they mean.

    Anyone wanna give me the scope on this?

    Also sorry if this is not HTML but i assumed it was a link and thus written in HTML

    Their official reason for this was "spam in comments" or something like that. Yahoo and MSN also support this feature but I'm not sure about others...
