This could help, but i think i lot of users who DoS forums and such where wronged by a mod or admin first, and had spent some time there. Revenge. SO they would most likely be past the threshhold. Not to mention, some people log in and stay logged in 24/7, while some get on for five minutes and post a shit ton at one and get off for the day.

I understand where you're comming from, but a single trying to DoS a service is likely to fail, as services can usually hold a few gigabytes or so down, and Google Fiber gives a maximum of 1 gigabyte up.

Additionally, people who 'stay logged in 24/7', at least on a website, aren't submitting new page requests, and therefore will not be given an increase in "trust", while people that post a lot in a short ammount of time will be subbmitting many requests, and therefore will increase in trust.

Ruleing out a DoS, I'm more concerned with DDoS, and the extensive booter networks that have become ever so popular, as well as 'Tor's hammer' which I belive has become the go-to tool of choice lately.

Makes sense. Still though, the server has to accept the requests being sent, but no protection will completely work, but it would keep the site up for the frequenters. Although ajax detects how long someone is logged in, your system most likely wouldn't, that's what I was thinking of. Someone should try to make this system.
