DDoS Prevention
I've recently discovered the cause of our recent lag issues. We've been getting slammed with bots trying injection attacks. Injections will never get through as we're using prepared statements and excellent sanitization, but that doesn't mean they won't try. And try they have been, thousands of times per second. So, I've added some extra checks to ban the shit out of some of the most obvious injection attempts. If you should somehow land in the firewall and get sent to meatspin, be sure to fill out the form at the bottom so I can unban your IP and whitelist it.
