This feature has been discontinued, the constant chase for bots and their bypass is not worth it. I recommend setting up automod or just allow mods to manually ban these bots.
I am aware of the current delays with the API response, I've been monitoring it for the past few days. I'll try implementing a few fixes to adjust the load times, apologies for the inconvenience.
UPDATE 09.08.2025 The API is now cached, which means data isnt real time, it refreshes every 30 seconds. Sorry this had to be done, response time went from 2000ms to about 300-400. Had to be done.
