Thank you for a straight answer, no candy coating. I respect that. Understood. I guess we've all got to just get to a point where we can monitor over servers or virtual domains better.
How about some kind of code that could send the Admin a PM telling him or her that there is an IP or a member that or who is or might be flooding the server with requests, and maybe some kind color code status or percentage scale as to how severe the threat might be?
It's not fair to be the squeeky wheel when the person on the other end is honesly trying to help you, so I apologize.
