Firewall Rules — frequency blocking seems to have quit working

    I just took a look at the “blocked” listing in one of my Wordfence installs, and notice the last time an IP was blocked for accessing too fast was 2 months ago!! (my bad for not noticing) I used to get those blocks several times a day. Is this broken or did the bots suddenly decide to slow down? Any way to test without compromising website user experience? Thanks, MTN

    Hey Wordfence, any take on this? My most recent block due to hits that were too fast ended 2 months ago! That couldn’t be right… or have the spammers, scraper and attackers gotten wise to Wordfence? Thanks for any info. MTN.
