a legitimate concern from someone who's hellbanned:
No offense intended here... but it sounds like you could easily become the victim of a DoS attack. All that's needed is for someone to create their own front end and you'll be back to normal.
Have you investigated some sort of solution on the server side, and not the client side?
- tedivm 15y agoIt isn't nearly that simple- they'd have to create the custom front end and get everyone to use it. I doubt one person constantly hitting the site would have any issue, it's the combination of all of his users doing it that caused the problem.
- dmishe 15y ago> it's the combination of all of his users doing it that caused the problem. well that's the point of ddos attack
- Ineffable 15y agoYeah, but if you want to do a DDOS attack you can just use one of the already configured tools out there that will bombard the server with as many requests as possible. A few chained ajax requests are never going to replicate that sort of load.
- tbsdy 15y agoI've been hellbanned? Any ideas why?
