Thanks :) Yeah, we limit the length of line to try to avoid scribblers. We thought of rate-limiting the number of lines too, and adjusting the limit, so the first time you hit the limit you're stopped for 1 seconds, next time for 2 seconds, then 4, 8, 16 and so on.

Would probably work quite well.

PS is your hostname 'bd222edited for privacy.com.br' ?

Yep, that would be me. Sorry if I broke something, it started as an attempt to remove the random lines obscuring the drawings and text. When I noticed the fade out effect on the lines, I had already erased everything D:
yeah no worries, I just wanted to check that it wasn't someone trying to attack the site :)
