Overusing our search engine with a very large number of searches in a very short amount of time.

Using a badly configured (or badly written) browser add-on for blocking content.

Running a 'scraper' or 'downloader' program that either does not identify itself or uses fake headers to elude detection.

Using a script or add-on that scans GameFAQs for box and screen images (such as an emulator front-end), while overloading our search engine.

There is no official GameFAQs app, and we do not support nor have any contact with the makers of these unofficial apps. Continued use of these apps may cause your IP to be blocked indefinitely. This triggers our anti-spambot measures, which are designed to stop automated systems from flooding the site with traffic.

Some unofficial phone apps appear to be using GameFAQs as a back-end, but they do not behave like a real web browser does.

Using GameFAQs regularly with these browsers can cause temporary and even permanent IP blocks due to these additional requests.

If you are using Maxthon or Brave as a browser, or have installed the Ghostery add-on, you should know that these programs send extra traffic to our servers for every page on the site that you browse.

The most common causes of this issue are: Go head to-head with up to four players in Competition mode, or play with a friend in co-op mode.Your IP address has been temporarily blocked due to a large number of HTTP requests.
