How reliable is this? Yesterday I was blocked from my site by BB, even though I was logged in, renaming the module file to stop it from working was my only option.

Reading the log now I see several blocked requests only today. How great is the risks that BB blocks valid requests? How great is the risk I block visitors that aren't bots or spiders but instead potential clients?

I'm curious to see this too.

Sorry to up this one, but the risk to block valid requests seems too high.
Many new users on my website deleted their account (many in a row), others couldn't post comments anymore.
I think this is caused by this module.

I've been using BadBehavior for years and I can't even recall the last time i had a false-block. I check the logs regularly to make sure i'm not blocking valid vistors, and as best as i can tell, I'm not.. Only had one complaint in 4 years, and that was way back on BadBehavior 1.x
