Is there no follow attribute in this forum?

[gateway]

I read somewhere that google introduced the rel=nofollow attribute and suggested that all forums and blogs use it to avoid improper pagerank.:nuts:

But in a seo view, forum posting is one way of linking your site to search engines for easy access and indexing. :dunno:

I was just wondering if x10 employs such a suggestion to use the no follow attribute in the forum.
Or maybe doesn't employ that to help members site grow?
If you have any idea about this please share it here.

I don't think they follow it and if they do, i think they should stop, what about everyone else as it brings no advantage to the forums...

if rel=nofollow is introduced in forums it will lost its life.Many of my site pages have backlink from the frums.

there is no rel=nofollow in the signature links.
For example, gateway, your link in sig is
