What stops you dropping the connection the moment you realize you're being loading barred.
- LightHugger 2y agoPresumably the point is that the user (or bot) wants to access the content, a connection would have to complete the load successfully to do what they came for. if they just drop it instantly then that's a bot turned away.
- mike_hearn 2y agoBut you don't want to throw an arbitrary five second delay into login for every good user, they hate that sort of thing whereas the bot doesn't care.
