I wouldn't consider an attempt every few seconds a "flood"
IE: connection attempt as described here.

If someone does this just ban them, they deserve it.

If several people want to enter your sever... they can simple press and hold
the enter key on the "Connect" button... then it tries to connect to the
server many times a second... I guess if more people are doing this , it can
lag the server... at least thats what happened at our servers too
sometimes...
