Can't get a deep crawl

URL: http://www.pegasusgalaxy.com

Background:
I started my website almost two months ago. I now have a page rank in the google toolbar but not so good rankings in google. I have submitted to dmoz and yahoo directories but am not listed yet so that could be a reason for the less than hoped for rankings.

I have a lot of content on my forums but google has yet to do a deep crawl of them. It usually only views the index page and will occasionally view topics linked from the home page of my site. I use invision power board as it's free and easily navigated. Is there something I can do/should be doing to get google and other search engines to crawl deeper into all of my forum pages?

Also, if anyone has the time and doesn't mind, could you give me pointers on my meta tags and other stuff I should be doing?

I have also noticed that my site is viewed almost 24 hours/day by an ip address that resolves to msnbot. This has been going on for about a month now but I don't show in any msn search results. Is this normal?

I appreciate all of the help and advice.

Get some good inbound links with decent PR (5 or higher.). I just set up a website about last week and Google started deep crawling it already. So get some good inbound themed links with decent PR and within a few weeks Google should start to deep crawl.
Yes that is normal. MSNBot is a beta bot that is crawling and indexing pages hopefully being indexed by MSN for when they start using their own database... It deep crawled my site all last month and took 200,000 pages. Now it visits on the regular bases getting my main pages about 3 times a week.

since your site is only 2 months old, you would give it a little longer to see your pages indexed in google.

the best you can do is get backlinks, and maybe add some links in your main page, so google can find those links

I have many links to my site already and have had them for quite some time but they do not show in google and none of them are on a page higher than PR3.

Do you think my deep crawl problem will be solved when I get into dmoz and yahoo directories?

having or not having meta tags won't affect if you will or won't have a redirect- unless you have a meta tag that's not allowing them to crawl it or something.

just get more inbound links and be patient, that's all you can do.

dmoz and yahoo aren't the only fix, but they're a fix. they'd give you a link.

I like your site. I think it's still too new; next update should do it.
