Isn't it a pity search engines like Google, not being logged in, won't index the "hidden" forum?

By the way I have a PM in my inbox, possibly just an automatic welcome message. But I can't read it. It links to http://cajinnovations.com/yabb0/YaBB.pl?action=imshow;caller=1;id=-1 but that produces this:

406 Not Acceptable

An appropriate representation of the requested resource /yabb0/YaBB.pl could not be found on this server.

Additionally, a 404 Not Found error was encountered while trying to use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.

Yes I noticed the PM quirks too.

I intend upgrading the forum to the latest this week so hopefully that will sort itself.

I'll try and sort out the guest access also

I find it quite ok that Google and others don't have access everywhere. I'm writing things not for the whole world and at all not for the alltime Google archives. Call it paranoia or whatever, there's no need to collect and store any fart for all eternity.
BTW, not only Google will come, all other sort of spam and hackers will come, too.

So I'd say no, it's not a pity.
