Ep overuse suspension

Hosting Support
1

I got a 24 hour suspension for ep overuse on https://lovebug.ml which i understand to be php usage ?

its strange because my site stats are usually flatline but you can see in the attached image that there was a massive spike

ep.php

my website is only a few pages of very small php its not like a wordpress site running 100’s of phps so I cant understand why this happened

ive converted all the site pages to html except the index.php which loads the pages via ?page=somePage and servers.php which pulls a html file from my game server and displays it to show the current online players

I cant think of any way to reduce it further and still not sure where this spike came from causing the suspension

Any ideas would be appreciated, Thanks

It could be from traffic, including bot traffic. If you use Cloudflare, make sure you disable its bots.
