Re: I'm not a robot
The robot question is coming up because of the security settings we have in the Cloudflare service we are running:
Why do I see a captcha or challenge page
That service has helped protect us against numerous attacks and other malicious activity.
I'll take a look to see if there's any special with the Forums that may be unintentionally triggering any of the Cloudflare rules that are protecting our site. I may also consider lowering the security settings, but I would prefer not to if I can.

Re: I'm not a robot
Thanks for the explanation Troy. At the very least, I don't feel that this is directed at me personally.
My minor inconvenience is well worth the security to Castanet.

Go back to your manufacturer and make a warranty claim. Obviously, you have a major malfunction.Drip_Torch wrote:G'damn it!

I don't give a damn whether people/posters like me or dislike me, I'm not on earth to win any popularity contests.
It appears US voters hated Woke more than they hated Trump.

Dear Robot test: How many fingers am I holding up? Luv QK
Regardless of who "wins" an election, they always are up against a Silent Elite. Do you believe the extreme poor who voted for Trump ever thought their non-profit support would be slashed right out from under them?

Re: I'm not a robot
Now I copy my post before posting since I never know when I will be considered a robot. Like today posting in the Sport thread.
Does anyone know how someone with post count I've got can all of a sudden become a robot

Re: I'm not a robot
Maybe you are posting too fast from one thread to another? Try posting with at least a 1 minute gap between posts?

Re: I'm not a robot
I'm getting the message too - no obvious reason and nothing's changed on my end.
Truths can be backed up by facts - do you have any?

Re: I'm not a robot
The robot question is coming up because of something you're including in your message that's triggering our security service, Cloudflare, to think you're trying to hack our site. I'll see if there's a way to relax the security rules a little for making forum posts.
