I have noticed a couple times now that its VERY easy to catch an IP ban when adding new flares to a sub.

I think today is the 3rd time I have had it happen and only thought about it because of what I was doing.

I also noticed after adding flares and editing 2-3 posts to put the flare on the post I was IP banned quickly too.

Steps to reproduce: Add new flare, add 2-3 more immediately after with minimal time in between.

Too many requests to the site too quickly will land you a temp IP ban. The more it happens in a period the longer the ban gets. Its part of the anti-shill/DDOS/Bot protection that has setup.

I usually have a ton of tabs open and sometimes the browser restarts for a update or crashes. When every single tab (probably like 50) makes a request at the exact same time it's a good way to get on the ban list. x.x

I guess I've never hit the limit. Challenge accepted.
