Web crawlers == permanent ban
|
Why you should read this notice
There is a threshold between my willingness to provide this service and my frustration level. There
are very few things that can cause this threshold to move in one direction or the other, and the worst of
them is running web crawlers on this site.
This service is free to everybody except me. Yes, I actually have to pay monthly expenses incurred by
this site. I'm not asking for money and I'm not asking for you to look at banners. Instead, I'm asking
for a little cooperation.
So what's the problem?
Think about it! You simply can't run a web crawler in a cross-referencing
database search because it's an infinite loop.
So, what if I do?
Very simple. You will be automatically banned for life.
Every single person that has ever tried has been banned, and to be perfectly honest, I'm sick of it.
So, from now on, banning is permanent.
