To help further I would need access to see this for myself and check some things out in the backend.

However testing your site shows you have bigger problems than bots - bandwidth usage just for pageload is off the scale and that is not bots causing that:

LATER EDIT: C'mon Man, you don't have a bot problem at all. Never did have. Here's stats from your forum home page:

Currently Active Users

There are currently 20 users online. 0 members and 20 guests

Most users ever online was 61, 05-23-2013 at 05:06 PM.

That's nothing.
