OK, yes, I was being colloquial. I swear a lot. It doesn't mean anything. What is this shit? meant "why am I getting this when I'm not doing any of the things I would expect to trigger a DDoS defence" but that takes too long to type.
I am a front-end dev. I specialise only in the things you see and touch, and leave the server stuff to the server experts. My knowledge of hosting infrastructure is general at best, and my knowledge of back-end development is more or less limited to what creates a good front-end (and what doesn't).
Your explanation came across as throwing numbers at me to fob my question off rather than explaining why hitting the homepage once in 10 minutes from a web browser behind a seriously well-defended firewall might get picked up, and why the fact that I should be coming in with valid authentication credentials still isn't enough to convince it that I am real. I was going to write that last time but your tone pissed me off.
And you've met me enough times surely to know that if I'm coming back with quips that means it's all good?
