Is it technically possible with the vB software, or desirable to lock out certain parts of the forum except to logged in users?

Thanks

In rules etc from those servers people are made aware of the fact that they are sharing. Its up to them to make their content on their pc etc vieuwable for everyone or not. Just the same as lime and frostwire.
Its up to us what we post in here. By the rules of the forum ofcourse.
We dont break any rules. They just shared it with there own permission. Knowing it or not.
So Fahter has a point. All search engines are to close to home them. I think a bit of common sence about posting is in order.
