Anthony I'm only going to say this once, either shut the fuck up or put your money where your mouth is and develop and propose a valid replacement, and stop wining when others take actions that are deemed necessary for the betterment of wikimedia related projects. UserAgents are not a big deal, Domas is doing a good job at addressing problems, when you have a massive drain on the servers for no apparent reason and no method to even attempt to identify the source (except IPs) and a majority of these are probably wannabe live mirrors full of spam, or broken automated algorithms some action is better than nothing especially because most of those idiots wont know how to fix their broken programs.

Anyway, you probably are missing one important point. We're trying to make Wikipedia's service better.
I'm sure you are. But that doesn't mean I agree with your methods.
Probably everything looks easier from your armchair. I'd love to have that
view! :)
Then stop volunteering. _______________________________________________ Wikitech-l mailing list Wikitech-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikitech-l
