faforever.log fills up HDD quickly

Hello,
First of all: I CANT post the forever.log (cause its the reason why i make this Topic). The only .log file i have for you is the uid.log , dont think you can use it.
Currently my forever.log is ~12GB yeah GB ! Its an error that the connection times out insanely fast when you wanna look at the statistics in the last 90days.
Cant check it at the moment, but i guess it was this order: chat->rightclick a user->playerstatistics->last 90 days-> "connecting to server". this "connecting to server" never stops... so i just rightclicked it in my taskbar and closed it, but it runs on and writes the logs in an insane speed. I just noticed it as i come back after i was for a few hours and my skype was logged out caus of "to less disk space" (didnt even knew

my comments - this looks like valuable info but i havent tested it myself yet :/
also this server spam protection is kinda ridiculous, as everyone already knows

Happened to me once too, then I got yelled at for not posting logs.
Peace through superior firepower.

You couldn't even post the first 5000lines cause you can't open such a huge file, even notepad++ or word 2013 can handle them.
