script kiddies

Well a little kid was banned from a site I run the other day and didn't
like it so he's determined to bring us down. First attempt was during a
thunderstorm and I was at work. I blamed the outage on the storm since
that's normal. Tonight he decided to try harder and managed to
disconnect everyone from the chat by flooding it enough and overloading
the server. My connection was unaffected. My server didn't even die.
Soon everyone was back in. Strike two putzo. I also remembered a
setting for flooding and lowered the time for kicking someone for
flooding.



Why do people even try? I mean find somewhere else to go. We have
simple rules. You broke them. We don't want you around anymore. geez...
