1. The file is that large so some users can just download it, unzip it, and run the '64/32 bit' file without it being too much complicated.
2. Unfortunately, I can't post the link here to the .jar since the same folder which it is in contains a .exe file. I will send you the link in a reply to your registration e-mail.
3. Of course you can create any add-on you want. If you're thinking of hosting a web server, I can just host it for you on IIS on Windows instead of you having to make a whole web server in Torquescript.

When I packaged it I included the Java Runtime for Linux, both x86 and x64 which causes it to take up much more space. If your distribution already has a runtime such as OpenJDK you can ask hammereditor for the jar.

I wouldn't ban him. If you have time to go to a nutrition center to get fake muscle gaining formula then you can unban him. Obviously you're either too lazy or you really couldn't give a care, both being bad attributes.

If your server has a 100mb port and you have 100mb of incoming malicious traffic, do you think blocking that traffic at server level is going to help at all? DDoS mitigation is difficult and expensive, not something a server level software firewall is going to deal with, or something I'd expect you to understand. Lots to learn kiddo!

Not sure, but effective DDoS mitigation is well outside the budget of any Blockland hosting service.
