It view of recent changes made with NukeSentinel(tm), I am hereby opening a competition to the community. There are a few requirements for any scripts that are submitted for this event. While this is not a server level protection it will be a htaccess level protection. Click "Read More..." for details.

Requirements:
1) It MUST use NS system vars such as $ab_config and $nsnst_const to gather data.
2) It MUST be lite and fast.
3) It MUST be written with the intent for inclusion in NS not as a standalone.
4) It's flat file log must be called by the var of $ab_config['ftaccess_path'].
5) It MUST be trigger by the Blocker #11:
$blocker_row = $blocker_array[11];
if($blocker_row['activate'] > 0) {
// ROUTINE ENCLOSED HERE
}
6) When a flood is detected it must be able to use the NS ip blocking system to write ip's to the database.
7) It CAN NOT be a remake of FloodGate.
8) It WILL be part of NS and therefore covered by the NSN licensing and ownership.

In return you will get:
1) Proper and permenant credit in the NukeSentinel(tm) credits file.
2) Credit within the NS script that the flodd system is placed.
3) Bragging rights to having created scripting used within NS.

I will provide samples of how the flood system should be integrated so that you will have a basic idea of how to make your script integration.

Email me at webmaster_at_nukescripts_dot_net for samples.
