I'm seeing 403 forbidden errors in Google Webmaster tools for urls that are contained within forums that have permissions set for unregistered users to view forum but not thread content.

I'm seeing these 403 forbidden errors also coming from these links that are showing in "last post info".

Could you add "noindex, nofollow" to these links and "<meta name="robots" content="noindex">" to the actual pages.

I'll keep this thread open and see about adding it to the next version, at the very least I should exclude those forums and threads from the sitemap.
 
Update: Turns out the sitemap already excludes such threads, but I have added nofollow support to internal links pointing to those threads by way of a new setting in the Forum URLs settings page in the DBSEO CP.
