Nice and easy to install (v5.x) simple to use and identifies tons of bots that you can then control.
Really nice addon that removes "fake traffic" from showing up in the members online stats. Also well-made in the sense that it also finds new bots and can automatically report them back to the dev :) :+1:
This is an extremely useful addon for sorting out the bots you want crawling your site versus those that are just nuisance bots taking up bandwidth and giving nothing useful back. It's especially useful as a starting point if your server is being overrun by Chinese and Russian bot to the point where it is intermittently bringing down the server in a DDoS-like scenario (which happened with one forum I was brought in to repair).
A useful extension to XenForo's bot classification system to handle more bots that are seen in the wild
A very simple plugin that does what it says on the tin. I recommend if you love having statistics, like me!
I think this is a very underrated addon. Every board has a lot of bots lurking in the background and this useful addon helps you to separate them with your normal visitors. Because it then shows the real amount of guests you have right now and not the fake number which comes from the bots. Thank you.
