 * I’m not seeing BBB on our disallowed plugin list (I work for WP Engine).
 * We do exclude many known bots from our billing, but they can still hit your site(
   if they’re not blocked outright for security reasons). Using something like BBB
   would be a nice way to exercise some control over misbehaving bots from a resource
   perspective.
 * In any case, it seems like all is good. [@specialk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/specialk/)–
   Let me know if you ever need support with WP Engine compatibility for your plugin(
   s) in the future.

 * Thanks [@davidvee](https://wordpress.org/support/users/davidvee/) for following
   up, and will definitely keep you in mind for any WP Engine compatibility concerns.
   Cheers

 * FYI, I’ve been running BBB on a WP Engine site with ~17k/mo visitors. No problems
   noticed to date.
