It seems to be a security pattern that a few software providers have followed.
Teamviewer has something similar where if the client you are trying to log into is not responding and you try logging in more than x(nobody tells you what x is) number of times you get a message telling you that there have been multiple failed logged attempts and you need to wait for a while before trying to log in again(yet again there is no hint as to how long you have to wait before trying again.)
What really rankles about Teamviewer is that even if you have the correct credentials, if the login attempt fails because of some unknown reason - that still counts towards your incorrect login attempt count.

I was logged in, the very first try to forward the message already failed, with the second account blocked... that's a bit too soon in my opinion

No spoilers, but ... just finished Tiamat's Wrath, and now I know there will be a 9th book. Or there had better be, at least!
Only we're going to have to wait for it ... probably another couple of years ... 
Still, we have series 4 of the TV series "later this year" for those of us with Amazon Prime.

I thought I had remembered reading before TW came out that it was the "penultimate book in the series". So, yeah. One more.
At least they're fairly fast cranking these out. Maybe a year? At least they're not on the GRRM/Rothfuss rate of writing.

They started a year apart, but they have been 1.5 for a few books now. Hopefully they won't slow down any more ...

I have a number of objects in some apps with numerous variables and objects in them. When in the debugger, I'm usually only interested in a few values (bIsThisIncluded being the one I wish I could see). Unfortunately, when I mouse over to see what their values are I usually have to scroll down to see the value I want to know about. Is there any way to make them appear at the top of the list? It's not alphabetic. I've moved them around in my class declaration. I just wish I could get a few to appear at the top. Any ideas? Thanks, Mike

Maybe add what you are interested in to the watch window.

Yes, but it's not straightforward and depends on what environment you're using.
Under .NET you can create something called a DebuggerTypeProxy that returns a filtered or sorted list of items
Here's a snippet of one I wrote for a project here that's still pending approval. meh
#if DEBUG
[DebuggerTypeProxy(typeof(DebugProxy))]
#endif // DEBUG
public sealed partial class Struple : DynamicObject, IDictionary<string,object>
{
#region debug proxy
#if DEBUG
sealed class DebugProxy
{
IDictionary<string,object> _outer;
internal DebugProxy(IDictionary<string,object> outer)
{
_outer = outer;
}
[DebuggerBrowsable(DebuggerBrowsableState.RootHidden)]
public KeyValuePair<string,object>[] Items {
get {
var result = new KeyValuePair<string,object>[_outer.Count];
_outer.CopyTo(result, 0);
return result;
}
}
}
#endif // DEBUG
#endregion debug proxy

Sorry, but that is just f'n scary to me. People making things way too complicated. I think.

interacting with the debugger is scary
the #defines aren't necessary, just FYI
I prefer not dragging around an extra class in release builds is all

Ok. I guess. I work in the debugger every day at various levels of complexity and I have never in my career needed to do extra code to get things done like that. I guess your situation calls for it. so be it. 
debugger has never been scary for me. knock on wood.

I just mean the visual studio live debugger integration.
it has never been particularly friendly.
using the debugger is friendly, and so are certain operations like Debug.WriteLine and Debugger.IsAttached, but to create "views" for objects beyond really simple things can often require custom code.
It's just that most people never really need to do it. The question in the OP is one that just doesn't come up that often in the real world. As those often can be, the solution is arcane. It's one of those dark corners of the debugger most people never need to touch.
How many people need to filter items in a collection or dictionary at debug time only?
Fortunately it's not a lot of code. The meat of it is in a single short method.

If you want scary - try writing your own debugger.
I did. I'm nearly bald now and I think there is a correlation.

My hat's off to you guys who do compilers, debuggers, kernel work (munchies matt i think does this), anything lower level stuff, etc.
No thank you. I have a few hairs left on my head and would like to keep them if possible.

The debugger I wrote was a companion to the script language compiler I also wrote. It wasn't just merely a script language though - it compiled to native machine code and it was pretty fast. Writing those was some of the most fun I have ever had programming. It was also very tricky, hence the lack of hair. Sometimes, when I am feeling particularly masochistic, I think about what I would do differently. Then I remind myself that it's not my problem any more.
