Is it just me, or is this really weird?

Had an account since March 2015, but hasn't made any posts.

He's also only been on for 1 minute since then, but was last online today.

 

He has almost 1000 views of his account.

 

 

Not really concerned, just think this is sort of weird, no?

 

Edit: ive also seen his 'last online' time update like 5 times in the past few minutes on his profile meaning he's been on for like... at least 10min... but it still says his account has been on for a minute

Edit 2: Also, aside from me, he was the last person to look at Zach's profile

 

spooky

It's the search engine crawler, it indexes the content on OSBot for it to show up when you search on Google, for the SEO.

 

I saw it viewing specifically this thread, though, shortly after I made it. And why would it have 10min+ of activity (as far as we know), yet only have 1min active time on its account? And why was it visiting Zach's profile, but nobody else's?

 

So many questions, so little time

 

edit: his time didnt even change by 1 second. weird, no?

it's a bot, it's all you need to know :P

it doesn't have a 'online time' because it's online 24/7 like i said it's a bot. so no point

"And why was it visiting Zach's profile, but nobody else's?" not just Zach, it visits everyone :P and i think it's random

It specifically looks for new content to index.

 

It's not a person, chill out.

the real question is why this forums shows googles search bots as user though

 

IPB most likely has it configured that way in its generic robots.txt file.

Extremely scary. I'll work on removing google's crawler from this forum ASAP. Damn scammer bots.

That's exactly what the google bot would WANT US TO THINK!
