    It is very easy to write a script that will execute on a proxied virtual server using web developer quality assurance tools. You could design one to 'visit this site' and 'click this button' and 'submit this form' (and so forth). Using randomized IP addresses and other techniques one could easily bot out any site as long as they changed their behaviour enough to not get caught. It happens all of the time on Reddit and other news sites.

    Edit: I am not trying to argue if you are right or wrong; just clarifying that it would be easy to do.

    You’ve been suffering. As a life long fan, I’ve been happy with what they’ve done. I enjoyed TLJ quite a bit. They didn’t make the film you wanted, sorry.
