    I was clicking through my site and after several pages accesses, I was greeted with:
    `Sorry, your request cannot be accepted.
    I looked in the log and saw that the request from my browser was blocked as being a ‘bad bot’. Why did this happen – was I clicking through too quickly? Is there a way to relax this setting or should I whitelist my IP address?

    Hi @groston,

    Sorry about your bad experience.

    was I clicking through too quickly?

    Yes. Please configure “Blocking condition” at “Block badly-behaved bots and crawlers” in “Front-end target settings” section or disable it.

    Block badly-behaved bots and crawlers

    I’ll adjust the default values of them.

    Thanks for your reporting!

    Thanks for the prompt and helpful feedback! I missed that setting since it is hidden by default – my bad.
