    Can you give me the exact url you got the security check?

    This was the last thing I edited and the check came up twice I think, box and the image thing. I only removed a small sentence from the article.

    But do you have the url when the protection popped up?

    Also, use the preview tab instead of the button at the bottom, it won't show you a check.

    Just corrected a single typo (adding a "]"), checked the minor edit box, and still got the bot check. -_-;;; My first update in a while too, so it's not solely based on frequency of actions.

    Hmm seems like a good enough place for it but I just got flat out blocked instead of robot checked. Even just preview sent me to the blocked page

    Can you PM me the ip that is blocked? We had to ban a few leechers recently.

    It was on the forum but when you're banned from the forums you're banned from the wiki too.

    If they aren't helping at all then whatever, but if someone is banned here and helps on the wiki then I sure as sassafras don't want them banned there too. That doesn't even make sense.

    We are in a dilemma where the security to stop ddos towards the wiki is hurting the wiki :/

    All of BG network is behind the same load balancer. If you get banned on the load balancer you're banned from all of BG as a whole.

    The robot check is supposed to whitelist your ip for 1 month unless you do anything shady.

    Unless you are like Modoru and use a VPN so you can never be wlisted and keep wlisting random IPs to edit.

    Is anyone that isn't using a VPN having that issue though?

    Well it's not working. Literally 3 robot checks to make and preview 1 edit leading to ban on wiki when going to make 2nd edit but obviously not here. Unless editing is shady?

    Yeah, it has been awhile since I haven't been wlisted, but when I wasn't I don't remember it working right either. Just didn't want to be the first to say something based off over a year ago.

    BG servers average at 200Mbps usage at all time. Above 1000Mbps is when we start having problems with our current budget.

    Of course when someone decides to hammer the shit out of BG just because they pay 300$/mo for their Comcast package is when they trigger the firewall.

    If you are referring to me that's the work internet that the boss pays extra for lol. Though it generally clocks in at not that fast and was making like 10 word edits... never had the problem before
