Becuase my best buddy google turned gay, and decided to stop indexing us, I had to change the dir of /home to just www.gamingvoid.com. Its still really buggy, but I will keep you informed.

Because when you went to gamingvoid.com before it had a redirect to /home/. Google decided alot of people were cheating and registering new domains, and just redirecting them all to one site, so sites that did that were dropped pagerank.

Did WE do that though?

No. google did this because it was out of hand, some people who had a site, would register 30-50 new sites that just redirected to that one site. Thats on a smalltime basis.
Even if we DID do that, let's say with 3 sites. It wouldn't of warranted the drop in pagerank

So, how come we aren't going to be indexed? Did they stop it all together?

Not altogether, we just won't be seeing our friend googlebot NEAR as much as we normally did.
Sad, sad times.

It is a really bad problem that we had to go through. We should of had the portal in gamingvoid.com all along so this would have not happened.

I don't really understand why google'd do that... I mean, we all are honest, right? They should do a check on it. AND GIVE US GOOGLEBOT BACK. T_T

It says Googlebot in the users on, does that mean he's back?

He's always been here man, as it was said, he's just not indexing us AS MUCH, and our main portal as much.

OK, I don't really get this whole idea, so sorry if I ask questions that are obvious.

................I dont see what the complain is about.
I was sick of that shit. Search up something random like "cell phone ringtones" and you get alot of sites saying rings for free...then...okay...
You hit the first one, shit, you need to pay. Hit the back button and go to the second link..and realize...this page looks familiar....and the next page even sometimes. I hate it. They had every right to, and it was smart, it made searches have better results by getting rid of 'repeat' sites.
I always wondered why you had a redirect anyway, I hate redirects..it makes you feel uneasy because most of the time they are to BS sites that want to sell something or give you a virus or advertise and all the crap..
It will go back to normal...

Hmm... maybe we should tie GoogleBot with a good rope? Anyone got one nearby? 
Anyway, I'm glad Googlebot is still partially here. 
It's my best buddy. He's most fun to talk to when no one's online. 
'cept that he never answers PM's... the guy/gall must be really busy. >_>
And congrats on the Flurb-Stock thingy Lincoln!

That'd be funny if GoogleBot was a real person, and is at the forums 24/7.

YEAH! Who's gonna make GoogleBot a real account? We can PM him and stuff and he'll post it on the forum! Kinda like a suprise box. Like, everyone PM's GoogleBot and he (annonymously) posts the contents of the PM's, so as to everyone can see what has ended up in GoogleBot!
Uh0oh, he's gonna tell all my stories then. >< Forget it!
*hugs GoogleBot*
HE'S MINE ALONE!
Googlebot just left though... I want the old situation to come back ><

That really sucks, Gamingvoid is going under deppression times. Just like every country. But hopefully somehow it will be fixed.
