| blast007 | I turned off the forums temporarily. Some crawlers, I think, were beating the crap out of it. 15 minute load average was over 25. | 13:34 |
|---|---|---|
| blast007 | half a million requests.. today... | 13:43 |
| blast007 | with "today" being "in the last hour and a half" | 13:43 |

| Juest | blast007: try goaway/anubis | 15:10 |
| Juest | or https://git.sr.ht/~xfnw/yap | 15:12 |
| blast007 | yap looks interesting since it's based on the number of requests being handled | 15:26 |
| blast007 | but I'll hold off on doing anything right now | 15:27 |
| blast007 | forums are back up now, so we'll see how that goes | 15:28 |
| blast007 | phpBB itself has a feature where it can disable itself if the system load average gets too high | 15:29 |
| blast007 | wow, okay, so that bot immediately started up again (or never stopped) | 15:31 |
| blast007 | load average: 36.27, 12.74, 4.68 | 15:32 |
| blast007 | :P | 15:32 |
| Juest | well, try the anti ai scrapper thing? | 15:36 |
| blast007 | (the phpBB feature to disable the site wasn't enough either) | 15:37 |
| Juest | oh well | 15:37 |
| Juest | targeted attack? | 15:37 |
| blast007 | no, just badly behaved bots behaving badly | 15:37 |
| Juest | oh, which bot? | 15:37 |
| blast007 | not sure | 15:43 |
| blast007 | it's hosted on Alibaba Cloud | 15:44 |
| blast007 | I'll worry about that when I'm home | 15:55 |
| blast007 | I *think* I have some sort of a IP ban list on my load balancer machines | 15:55 |

| Juest | ah yes, chinese scrappers | 16:41 |
| Agatha | Scraper trying to grab chat posts as AI training data. I've read about how a lot of sites are getting hit with these. | 16:42 |
| Juest | exactly | 16:50 |
| Juest | blast007: just use either of those anti scrappers i suggested :) | 16:51 |
| Juest | its not a badly configured bot, its designed to hit however it can | 16:51 |
| Agatha | It's not badly configured. It's just bad. | 17:02 |
| Juest | ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ | 17:08 |

| blast007 | the problem with those anti-scraper methods is that it can result in your site disappearing from legit search engines | 18:11 |
| blast007 | man, whatever it is is *still* going strong. Turned the forums back on and it was immediately like 100 requests per second. | 18:15 |
| blast007 | there, that's better. I have a bunch of Alibaba Cloud networks going into a tarpit now :) | 18:50 |
| moriah | Not a briarpatch like Brer Rabbit | 19:52 |
| tupone | any chance to see my glad pr? Tell me if it sane to put on 2.4 ? | 20:05 |
| Juest | blast007: well, you allow those legit crawler bots i think | 20:06 |
| Juest | chinese moment | 20:06 |
| Juest | probably someone unhappy with bzf | 20:06 |
| Juest | XD | 20:06 |
