Hi Donald,

Chances are, the problem you're trying to solve (throttling users) is
actually a symptom of the larger problem of runaway spamming accounts. Am I
right? In this case, throttling users with policyd and a relatively
straightforward policyd script is a good option to stem the bleeding. But
you may need to also invest time/resources tracking down and solving the
cause of the excessive volume, such as compromised WordPress scripts or
user accounts.
