It is recommended that BotBanish is run with "Record Only Mode" (which will be renamed to "Redirect Only Mode") checked in the settings. This is the default in version 7.1.06. Running without it checked will result in all users using the same IP address to be locked out if one user using that IP address violates the BotBanish Rules. This can lock out whole companies or households. In some cases this is needed, like running on a private in house website. You can list another company's IP address to be whitelisted or blacklisted allowing limited access to services.
