DarkUnderlord, if I had to guess, when the discouraged user is waiting for a response, the server has to keep open a resource, be it a socket or something else. I dont think its cacheable either. So Nothing stops a discouraged user from "while 1; keep connecting". Which is easier than looking for heavy queries which can be cached... Just so that you know, you know...

Does this mean I have an official permission to stresstest the Xenforo implementation of the Discouragement feature on this very forum, the RPGCodex.net, to see how the php process is gonna behave, before this acc is banned?
