CloudFlare has a maximum number of firewall rules, based on the types of paid accounts you have. Every couple of months we purge the list when it gets close to being full.
99% of IP addresses we block are from outside our target market - we're a very local/regional company - so we don't really have to worry much about blocking legitimate customers. Very rarely our support team will get a request from someone that's been blocked and we'll unban the IP address, or set it to a JS/Captcha challenge at CloudFlare.
