Hello,

Due to the increasing usage of bots that scrape SimpCity for content, we are forced to increase the request limits on the site.

We've added a limit to the requests in the search area (time based limit) and we'll be tweaking the existing global limit to a more harsher setting in the upcoming days.

Even though we tried tweaking the settings as much as user friendly as possible, browsing will be a bit more annoying for users using widely spread VPNs (due to the limits being IP bound), but we have no other choice in this situation.

Best Regards,
SimpCity
