I appreciate all of the informative and interesting conversations regarding forum spiderablility software...
I was wondering if a forum can install 2 of the archiving software programs (like VB Easy Archive and VBarchive) without being considered "spamming" a search engine?
The reason why I am mentioning this is because I am wondering if each of these two archive hacks might be more appealing to different search engines and will allow different thread results to be indexed.
I currently have VB Easy Archive installed, and I have had only 109 of the 600 threads listed in Google for the past 4 weeks (I installed the software in late June of this year, so it seems that after 1 1/2 months, Google is "stuck" on 109 threads in my forum

)
I am also going to install Filbrt's hack, since it looks so easy to install and seems that it could only help.
Do you guys think that Google or other search engines will consider our website as spamming if we have two archives (with slightly different looks) on our website?
I would appreciate your feedback about this.
