Freak I found this site while investigating an unusual spider (Baidu [Spider]). Thought you'd find it useful.

Hi freakzilla,
Only had a quick look.
First off your keywords, and description meta tags are blank. These are often over looked in SEO, but they still have a place. I'd recommend at the very least put some keywords on your pages.
For instance "Dune, The Cast out, Orthodox Herbertarians, Dune Forum," also if you put a quite specific key phrase in say "Dune forum against prequels" you would come top of any google search for just that phrase.
Also you don't seem to have a sitemap.xml or robots.txt. I would advised at least making a sitemap.xml with your index pages and forums and sub forums as these should be pretty static. You can see how to set out a sitemap on my technical blog
here. Once created and placed on your site you can submit the location of your sitemap to all the
search engines . It increases the chance of your site getting fully indexed and its ranking.
More to follow.

a more advanced suggestion, and i don't know how doable this is for your setup.
You could add a page that is static html. A page about the site, its history, why it was set up etc. If you set this up right using <h1> to <h6> tags <a> tags. it would really help your Search engine positioning.
e.g
<body>
<h1> Jacurutu - The Cast Out </h1>
<h2>Site History </h2>
<h2> Site Mission</h2>
<h3>Dune</h3>
blah blah
<h4>Frank Herbert</h4>
blah blah blah
<h4>The pretenders</h4>
blah blah blah
<h5> Brian Herbert</h5>
blah blah
<h2>Dune discussion </h2>
<a href="viewforum.php?f=2">Golden Path</a>
etc etc
</body>

Cool info, Kat, thanks!
All description meta tags should contain the following:
The new Dune books are crap and Kevin J. Anderson is a mofo hack.
