Been checking some back links on one of my sites. It appears my forum is saying nofollow on the links from users to the site. Any way to fix this? Apparently nofollow is not a good thing. Only thing I could find was allow html by users under forum permissions. Not sure if that fixed it or not.

Nofollow is a wonderful thing, it tells search engines that you aren't responsible for your users links and don't want your sites reputation to help them build their link base; helpful with spammers.
But yeah, there is a setting for that: CP -> Master Settings -> Primary Settings -> General Tab -> Advanced Options Dropdown -> " Add nofollow to links in user posts?" and " Add nofollow to links in signatures?"

Google will start to wonder, why all the outbound links of this forum are nofollow. Well, i'll have to do something with this!
