Easing of anti-BOT measures. The increased security was causing a lot of false positives, after banning +1000 IPs we feel its now safe to turn our settings down to reduce the number of errors the security measures were causing. If you were falsely banned DM me.

The bot attack seems to be slowing down and we are staying up longer between each reset. Thus far 55,000 bots have been banned and our guest count is now back to manageable numbers. If you notice any more issues and or get false positive banned contact me.

Robots.txt pls leave us alone.
Literally I just cleared the sessions, reopened the site, purge the logs, within one minute over 1,200 bot requests and the session log is full again. Between now and last night when I cleared everything we had almost 1,000,000 errors driven by the bots.

#UtaForum Service Update.
Our database is down due to pseudo-DDOS from too many AI bots scraping our content. They are crashing our session database, will take a moment to sort out, maybe implement some better anti-bot, anti-AI features, Cloudflare maybe?
