- It puts unnecessary load on our web servers
- If the "Last Alive" time is old, then you will already have received an email from our system
- The fact that you are most likely running this kind of thing from behind your tunnel it will do traffic over IPv6, thus keeping the state of your connection tracker okay again and thus avoiding the problem mentioned in the FAQ, fix it properly and not by automatically querying/pinging etc.
Also, if you think that your system is so unstable that you need to do anything like this, an email from our system or one from your system won't make a difference but will be exactly the same.
