Ok..i'm going to chime in. This is a bit of a knee-jerk post so sorry if the continuity seems a little broken.
My name is Tom. I own operate a small hosting company called NeverLAN which focuses on hosting art related content. We happily and greatfully host goodbrush.com
To the point:
One of the things we do to help maintain reasonable speeds and oh yes...low prices...(we don't limit bandwidth consumption) for hosting on the sites that we host is to monitor the server activity. Way more often than you'd expect we see offline readers bots and scrapers just raking content from our users sites. I'd say 50/50 between the U.S. and other countries.
Scrapers are BAD when used improperly. It is possible to have the bot 'take naps' between requests which doesn't bother web servers that much.
I've removed ALL of the blocked IP address from the database so you all can browse away.
But please don't us bot's to save the sites or your IP may get listed again back into the block list by one of our staff.
Sadly blocking IP's is the only way we can stop the scrapers from destroying the bandwidth.
Here is some sample log data from some user from sweden that is using a bot this second. You'll notice the the hit's are coming about 3ish per second.

That's a little messy to read and probably too techie for most.
I'll persoally work more closely with Craig to find a fool-proof solution that won't impact his presense.
I'm happy to answer any questions or reply to any comments any of you may have.
-Regards
Tom McGuire

That is a fantastic idea, however, that is up tor Craig. Sadly we can't just to zipping up our clients websites and start offering them for download.
I'm sure you understand.

I also couldn't browse goodbrush, that's why i would like to share with my discovery. The easiest way of changing ip is to use proxy, so just experiment (like i did) and you'll be able to admire one of the greatest masterpieces. |
