Search Query

[Forneus]

While using the forum search feature a few minutes ago a certain something caught my eye (considering how emphasised it is, it's quite hard to ignore)...



Simple enough: unless someone knew that it was on-site in advance (which for logical and legal reasons it shouldn't be) they'd have no reason to search for it. This brings the titular query to the fore: why, then, is it one of the most searched for tags? Hell, if I'm correct in that emphasis correlates to how often it is searched for then that makes it the most searched for which exacerbates the problem exponentially.

Already been pointed out and discussed: http://www.epforums.org/showthread.p...h-this-picture

And the reason it's the most searched for tag is likely because of search bots. I highly doubt our users are searching for child porn that much.

It's not users. There are various bots on the internet (often used by law enforcement agencies) that search around for this stuff. I believe they must have searched epforums and hence caused it to become a 'top tag'. I've deleted it now, will probably have to keep it an eye on it though. Also, we don't have any such stuff on the forums so no point speculating there.
