[Citadel Development] (no subject)

 I mentioned this idea elsewhere, but in case anyone else wanted to 
comment...  
   
 Uncensored has lately had this problem where, occasionally, people cannot 
log in due to a DoS event.  
   
 The event usually seems to involve someone logging into Uncensored 
multiple times through the web client.  
   
 This consumes so many sessions that Citadel hits its limit, and prevents 
any new sessions from being created.  
   
 We don't know the cause, but it seems to me that we could probably arrive 
at a partial solution: provide a limit to the number of sessions a user 
may create.  When exceeded, you could either close the earliest session 
for that user, or simply not allow the new session.
