Blocked a bunch of AI crawlers

Post by fluffy »

The forum has been super unresponsive for the last few days, and it turns out we were being DDoSed by the current trendy bullshit that's been affecting large swaths of the Internet as of late. I've blocked a bunch of known AI crawlers and the forum has immediately become way more responsive, so. Y'know. I have many reasons to be frustrated at AI bullshit along several axes.
