-
Please post you config (without passphrase) and give me the faucet accountId, so that i may be able to reproduce your issue.
The url is not available/not running for me.
-
You can try url pool.dogeserver.net:8082 since only the ports are different
I will send you the conf file in private message

Updates:
- added option to limit claims per account, to prevent faucet run dry all the time.
e.g. add 'maxClaimsPerAccount=1' to faucet.properties, to only allow one claim. - added info on dry faucet
Just testing version on https://faucet.burst-team.us
Edit:
The maxClaimsPerAccount abuse protection is very effective, as it gets validated via blockchain.
On only 1 claim allowed with claim amount of 1 BURST, it makes no sense to create multiple accounts to raid a faucet.

@luxe Nice Feature - I've updated.
-
@haitch Yep faucets should focus on help new users getting started, not as alternative mining :-)
-
@luxe Agreed. Having a quick skim through the payout on mine, I see accounts that claimed more than 190 times ......
-
Adjusted https://faucet.burst-team.us ... now only pays 1 burst per account. Very restrictive is better than always dry i guess ... i'm even thinking about cross check for other faucets to stop a few individuals from milking them, so that new users can not easy start, activate their account and make reward assignment. Donations to faucet account BURST-BBAQ-GF7D-Z6LX-3U7B6 are welcome.
-
This way is better in my opinion. :)
-
Updates:
- configure amount of claims shown in stats via 'burstcoin.faucet.statsAmountOfClaimsToShow'
- updated lib versions of spring-boot and recaptcha
- handle exception on recaptcha validation problems due google server
Edit: @haitch due to stats listed all claimed accounts ... the faucet html has grown to above 3,5MB in case of faucet.burst-team.us and 1,8MB in case of faucet.burstcoin.info ... with a new property 'burstcoin.faucet.statsAmountOfClaimsToShow' the number of accounts listed under claims can now be configured ... default is 200.
Also the google recaptcha server makes a lot of problems, seams they have issues right now ... tried to harden the code and inform user on issues.
-
@luxe Can that default 200 be sorted from max to min payouts, to show the addresses that are most abusing the faucets ?
-
@haitch since last version you can use e.g. ... 'burstcoin.faucet.maxClaimsPerAccount=2' that will limit the claims per account, so the sort makes no sense if you use that one. It is checked via blockchain, so no way to cheat that. (not getting reset on faucet restart)
