Since when did we allow spiders?

Actually, I have no idea what a "spider" is(in this context). Apparently, at the moment, there are five of them prowling about. Are they something like "bots"?

Anyway, to clarify, please note the attached screen-grab, where I highlighted the area of interest(left near the bottom) in red:
 
I wondered about this too... the last spider I saw was instantly zapped by Admins...
 
Those are search engine robots. They index the site and gather data for search engines which, if all goes well, then display us in results accordingly. They are called spiders, I suspect, because they crawl the "word wide web".
 
Alright then! I'll admit it! I don't care for the things in the least! There! I said it! *runs from room sobbing uncontrollably*

you big weenie....giggles... i recall seeing spiders on the city..and had no idea what they were...when viewing who was online etc....one name would be yahoo spider...hmm
 
Those stinkin' yahoo people; stooping so low to using arachnids for forced labour. :cross: I mean - come on! ;P
 
Well, fine then, I suppose. As long as they're only harmless slave spiders. But mark my words: Someday, the slave spiders will RISE UP! And then where will we be?!? :scared
 
I'm sorry, I don't understand a lot of web lingo...no pun intended...but does the word "spider" have a significant meaning when it comes to the internet?

I'm still a tad unclear on the specifics, but this handy link should help clear things up somewhat. From what I can gather, they are relatively harmless little beasties.

You have the gist of it right there. We're on the world wide web and these "spiders" crawl it.

I should've changed the name of 'em to "Owls" in the theme just to mess with the Tibbler. :ggrin:

😱wl: Pish Posh, my good man! As if any owl worthy of the name would ever stoop to such base shenanigans. The very idea!
 
yeah, and I bet they use spiders from India, putting all of our American spiders out of jobs!

And when you stop for a moment and ponder how many arms their average deity has, there's no counting how many freakin' arms their damned SPIDERS probably have!!! :cry
 
Speaking of spiders....i was watching "Bloody Mary" on video on demand last night..when spiders began popping out of this girl's face..soon there were many spiders all over her...i think they were black widows...hmm
