DROP, REJECT, Same fight. I don't understand why connection attempts continue while IP addresses are banned.

Does anyone have any idea?
I think REJECT is very strange choice for default.
I've realize it when found a lot of ICMP traffic from me. It customizes easy, but a lot of people will not change it.
I've read #507 and I'm not agree.
Agreed, the default should be DROP. Legitimate users shouldn't be effected because legitimate users shouldn't banned.
