   We were hit with a web request flood attack today

   One user was slamming the server with web requests, including image upload spam to load the server with image reprocessing.

   Server slowed to a crawl until I was able to identify the user and freeze their account.

   Really wish I had better admin tools to help diagnose these types of attacks :(

     @neatchee That sucks. We appreciate the hard work you put in for the server and dealing with crap like that.
