Bandwidth ThrottlingInstead of banning people from the site, I've decided to implement bandwidth throttling. This means that the speed of the website will be limited. Currently, the limit is set to 300 kB/s. This may change in the future. In some special cases I may still suspend IP's, but I wouldn't worry about it.Published on 04/06/2012 at 02:03 PM |
Usage AbuseOver the past few weeks I've been noticing that some IP address's have been consuming very large amounts of data via the proxy services of this website. This caused me to go over my bandwidth allotment last month, so I have decided to implement a new system to ensure that this does not happen again. Any IP address that I observe using a large amount of data will be suspended for an undisclosed amount of time (usually a day or two). I consider a large amount of data to be about 1 GB, but this may decrease in time as the site becomes more popular. If you are suspended multiple times, you will be put on probation. If you continue to use large amounts of data while on probation, you will be banned for some amount of time to be determined later (probably around 2-4 weeks). When your ban ends you will be put on probation again. Each time you are banned (not suspended), your ban time will increase. Please note that this is only for the proxy services, you won't be blocked from playing the games. Also note that this system is not automatic, and I will review each individual case myself. As always, if you have any questions, please contact me using the link at the bottom of the homepage. Published on 03/22/2012 at 11:40 PM |
Download AbuseI've noticed that people have been abusing this website by using the proxy to download large files. Because of this I have decided to put a hard limit of 20 MB on any downloads routed through the proxy.Published on 02/16/2012 at 12:22 AM |
My BadSorry for the downtime this morning. I messed up something on my server last night and didn't notice it until this morning. Everything should be working now. Please let me know (using the Contact Me link at the bottom of the page) if something's not working right.Published on 01/19/2012 at 12:02 PM |
Poll ResultsI thought about putting the results of the "do you actually read this" poll here, but they indicated that there really isn't any point in doing that.Published on 12/08/2011 at 07:30 PM |
