Can I prevent some pages from being crawled from SEOMoz spider and still not affect Google Spider?

Well, basically that's the question
Can I prevent some pages from being crawled from SEOMoz spider and still not affect Google Spider?This is, I have more than 10.000 pages on the website, and I am not interested in having reports for many of them, but I still wanna get SEO visits on them, so I want Google to crawl it easily...
Thanks!

Hey Martijn,
Thanks!
What about if I want to avoid rogerbot from crawling a range of pages from let's say /000001/; /000002/... /200000/ ?
Thanks!

Hi Matt,
Absolutely, you could do this by adding a special part to your robots.txt file specified to the user agent rogerbot which is used by SEOMoz for their spider. This could be done with for example:
User-agent: rogerbot Disallow: */anythingyouwanttoexcludeforroger/*ÂHope this helps!

On page links tool here at Seomoz
Hi Seomoz - first of all, thanks for the best SEO tools I have ever worked with (this is my first question in this forum, and also I just subscribed as a paying customer after the 30 days trial you guys offer). My question: After having worked for several weeks on getting the numbers of links in our forum on www.texaspoker.dk down, we are somewhat surprised to see that we didn't succeed in getting lower numbers. For instance, this page: http://www.texaspoker.dk/forum/aktuelle-konkurrencer/coaching-projekt-bliver-du-den-udvalgte has (that's what Seomoz seo tool tells us): 239 on page links. Can this really be true? We can't find these links, and we actuually did a lot to lower the numbers of links, for instance the forum members picture was a link before, and also there was a "go to top" link in each post in the forum. Thanks a lot.

How come there are no links to my website according to SEOmoz Competive domain analysis, while in google webmaster i do see links.?
I dont see any links to at all when i do a Competitive Domain Analysis in SEOmoz. However i do see links in google webmaster tools. this strikes me as odd. Also when i use open site exployer my website dont seem te be found. In google im on page 9 on my focus keyword so i do think there are links to my site. I would like to know what i can do so i can analyse my links in seomoz Competitive domain analysis. Many thanks. url: http://www.sadpanda.nl

Why is Roger crawling pages that are disallowed in my robots.txt file?
I have specified the following in my robots.txt file: Disallow: /catalog/product_compare/ Yet Roger is crawling these pages = 1,357 errors. Is this a bug or am I missing something in my robots.txt file? Here's one of the URLs that Roger pulled: <colgroup><col width="312"></colgroup>
