I hope this is the right place to post this - it's not really that big of a deal but it's something that I noticed. I keep forgetting my password (my own fault I know - that's not the problem) and I have to reset it. However when I go to reset I get the warning about my IP address being blocked for repeated log in attempts.
I realize this is needed and important to have however there's no warning when I try to log in that my IP address will be blocked if I keep trying to log in more than X number of times. I'm not sure if this behavior (that there's no warning - not that I'm being blocked) is intentional or needed for some reason. I think it would be helpful to know how many times I can try a password before I'll be blocked. Especially since I'm sure I only tried logging in two or three times.
