The site gets hit by a lot of bots (especially during the real early hours) and that's usually good but it unfortunately slows down the site, especially when its getting hit by 100s per a minute. I've updated the robots.txt file of Vizzed and with that I've told certain bots to only crawl the site every certain number of seconds.

Here are the affected bots and their crawl delay:
Yandex 2 seconds
Baiduspider 2 seconds

I also told the following bot to never crawl the site:
AhrefsBot

I've left Google bots alone since those are the most valuable bots to have going through the site. I also left the Bing bot alone since that's not really causing any issues.

So far it seems like the site's speed during the early hours has greatly improved

Davideo7 : Nice to know....we wouldn't want anything to happen now to do with those bots. Its always great to fix well the small things such as this which is needed. Since we know anything can disturb vizzed in a way.

Davideo7 : Quick question. Does this affect the wayback machine at all? I'm assuming it does since you mentioned crawling but am not sure.

Pokemonfan1000 : The wayback bots don't do very much crawling so this update doesn't affect them at all.

Davideo7 : Ok. Did you get my summon to a post in the Help forum? From my standing it could be a very urgent situation and should be fixed ASAP if you think it may be an exploit.
