Killed Some Spammers

So the site was running a bit slow for me as of late and I did some searching (thank god for being bored) and found that 5 spammer IPs were eating up 98% CPU usage on the servers and raping a wopping 17gigs of data every couple weeks.  I set up banns for all IP so the site should actually feel a bit snappier as the day goes on.  On another note, all spammers should die in a burning fire of hate.  Thanks.

It was taking me forever to load pages the other day that must have been why.

@Lusetti67 \r \r It was probably a combo of the gear event + these spammers. Im hoping to knock out some more processes today while Im at it. Server might reboot so if you see the site down it's just me fucking things up.
