Duh, because Google wouldn’t index forums where you need an account to read the posts. I’ve been signed up to dozens of forums back in the day, I’m telling you, a lot of them didn’t show shit until you signed in. Google only shows you public posts, if the game forum needs an account you won’t find the post in your search.

Most forums back then were heavily locked down, especially due to bots spamming ads.
