Hello,

Could you add a option, that randomize this every 'X' seconds ? would be really nice too !

Thank You.

What's the reason for this feature?

MAXDARK commented 11 years ago

There are few users, which emulate the whole javascript response, stressing up the server, and when you restart nginx, they have to re-check this stuff again because the key changes (using random), it is handwork, so automating it, works great, and will ruin the fun of those users.

I think nginx's native config rereading features are good for it.
