SEOMOZ crawler is still crawling a subdomain despite disallow

[TheNorthernOffice79]

This is for our client with a subdomain. We only want to analyze their main website as this is the one we want to SEO. The subdomain is not optimized so we know it's bound to have lots of errors.

We added the disallow code when we started and it was working fine. We only saw the errors for the main domain and we were able to fix them. However, just a month ago, the errors and warnings spiked up and the errors we saw were for the subdomain.

As far as our web guys are concerned. the disallow code is still there and was not touched.    User-agent: rogerbot     Disallow: /

We would like to know if there's anything we might have unintentionally changed or something we need to do so that the SEOMOZ crawler will stop going through the subdomain.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

I have heard of this before recently, I think possibly the moz crawler all or sometimes now just ignores the disallow because it is not a usual S.E crawler.

Hopefully one of the staff can provide some insight in this for you.

All the best.
