Links from here? Omega may be doing something.

Links on another website, I have no idea why

It is the same at g-f.net A bucketful of AI bots slurping for content.

Log in and look at the bottom of the page, at time of writing

In total there are 498 users online now: 2 registered, 2 hidden and 494 guests (last 5 minutes)
Registered users online now: Google Adsense [Bot], Google [Bot]


It can get up to a 2000+ guests and and you get that message.

They shouldn't be called "guests". Better would be "parasites"

It appears Cloudflare has temporarily rate-limited or blocked your IP.

Sorry about this, Lyle.
:oops:

This happens typically from too many requests,
a security rule being triggered, or a false positive.
If multiple users are seeing this error,
it may indicate that a Cloudflare rule is too aggressive
rather than an issue with any single user.
Cloudflare has Ray ID which is a unique identifier for each event
and can help Omega determine which rule may have triggered the block.

Seems once it is used to you you wont get it any more. I got it a couple of times after logging in and now I don't.
