Temporarily banned from discord.com when I run my bot

Question

When I run my discord bot on repl.it I get this error:

File "/home/runner/Corion/venv/lib/python3.8/site-packages/discord/client.py", line 723, in run
    return future.result()

It was working perfectly fine, I changed a string and now I get this error. I changed it then back to normal but I'm still getting this error. I've been working on this project for about a week. I tried typing kill 1 in shell multiple times but I still get the error. What is going on?

"I tried typing `kill 1` in shell multiple times but I still get the error" - why would you expect typing `kill 1` into your shell to do anything about a Discord ban? — user2357112, Aug 12 '22 at 12:13
@trincot No I don't have a clue what is happening still. My bot is not a spam bot or anything like that. — Manos Stg, Aug 12 '22 at 12:15
@user2357112 Because kill 1 changes the ip. I tried it in the past and it worked. Now it doesn't. — Manos Stg, Aug 12 '22 at 12:16
Oh so you are trying to circumvent the request limit by regularly changing the IP? They must be happy with that. — trincot, Aug 12 '22 at 12:17
@trincot What do you mean by that? I've seen many answers to the same problem where `kill 1` works, so I tried it too. — Manos Stg, Aug 12 '22 at 12:19
It's DDOS protection, it means you're sending too many requests too quickly. Changing your local IP won't make Cloudflare forget about you. Maybe if you could post your code as well, we could help you. If replit runs your code on their servers, it might be that replit has a lot of discord bots already, and Cloudflare is incorrectly identifying that as a ton of requests from the same place. — Parasol Kirby, Aug 12 '22 at 13:21
Does this answer your question? [In Discord.Py, how to solve the error for TooManyRequests?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/66724687/in-discord-py-how-to-solve-the-error-for-toomanyrequests) — TheFungusAmongUs, Aug 12 '22 at 14:11
This has nothing to do with OP sending too many requests. This is because the code is hosted on repl.it, where programs share the same IP which leads to rate limits simply from running the bot. — TheFungusAmongUs, Aug 12 '22 at 14:13

Are you using a shared IP? I have encountered this error before on services like Replit. It’s an error 429 (too many requests), so it’s likely just too many people using it causing replit’s servers to block it. Just wait a bit (maybe try another host if it still doesn’t work), and it should fix itself.

I used to run into a similar problem. A similar post on repl.it's forums gave me this chunk at the end of the program that did the trick. The answer varies based on how you have the code set up but it should apply to whatever method you're using.

try:
    asyncio.run(main()) #or whatever your "run" command is

except:
    os.system("kill 1")

`kill 1` kills the `init` process, the father of all process. And crashes surely the system. Which then rebooots and probably, if the system uses DHCP, that change the IP, indeed. But that is surely a strange and brutal way to solve problems. Plus most modern unix simply ignore "kill 1", in which case the command does nothing at all. – chrslg Dec 09 '22 at 16:46
