Summary0001914: Favorites rearranging method gets you banned
DescriptionWhen rearranging favorites, a user has the option to "move up" or "move down" entries by one place. When someone has a lot of favorites (at least 15 of the same type) in random order, arranging them can easily require enough clicks to get user banned for 15 minutes.
Steps To ReproduceLog in,
Go to "my place",
Go to "add/edit favourites",
Click on "move up" or "move down" until banned (may be around 50 clicks)
Additional InformationAs mentioned by pelican, the mechanism of moving items up or down one place with each request is ridiculous. It could just work as the re-arrange list boxes found in the customize table layout page for an anime page, which work with javascript until the user commits the changes.
TagsNo tags attached.

This is really two separate issues: a false positive by the banning routine, and a commentary on the UI design.

Given that, even with a JS solution to favourite organizing, the current web-based interface would remain available to those users who prefer not to use JS, I've made some changes to the banning functions to make it a little more friendly toward such behaviour.

These will go live with the next update.
