*Important Note:* Do not over refresh your page or put too many requests or start hosting on production server as there are no behaviours right now in the code to prevent ip blocking (it is still work under process) and you can potential can get your ip blocked/banned and also the project is still under testing phase and far from being complete and ready to be hosted on production machines.
