Provide a screenshot and describe the bug

I archived some urls several times from the GUI ADD page with Archive depth setting and sometimes the depth value was incremented when crawling regardless of the number of the depth. e.g. when I set it to 0 the actual depth of the crawl becomes 1 The incremented depth value can be seen on the depth column of the GUI CRAWLS page.
