gollark: Presumably the IP ban is so my server can't access DC pages - the issue with my home computer is collateral damage.
gollark: It is not.
gollark: If it *is* due to scraping that's pretty hilarious - TJ09 is banning me from access to what I need to stop scraping (the API) for scraping. It probably isn't *just* that though.
gollark: Basically, DC allows access via the API which returns machine-readable but lacking in information results and uses less bandwidth, or just downloading the pages and extracting data from them, which is worse but doesn't require API access and TJ09 may dislike it.]
