What the hell is up with this f***ing CAPTCHA S**t?

Post Reply New Topic

I feel the pain, its insane, been going round my head like David Blaine. Been going round my head like I'm driving in Spain, dying of pain. Insane.

What am I doing wrong?

I don't have any of the problems that other people have described, other than having to occasionally type in a string of numbers, and it doesn't matter if I use an iPad, an Android, a PC, or a Mac.

What do I have to do to start seeing these problems?

Is this spam or \Gothic fiction? The only way to get out of this sink hole, is to get wise to the facts.
You think you personally have the last say on this, well, holy me, you don’t.
Your dictionary is one of myopic stage fright and old age. Snap out of it or let it break you.

With every post I publish, I am asked to verify that I amn't a "robot," then click on "all the images with pasta or trees, then I return to the unedited post to which I was responding, then I back up to the previous page wherein I had made my reply post, then back again to verify that I amn't a "robot." This process cycles two to FOUR times just to publish a post. The same is true when I publish a Private Message (PM). Over, and over, and over.

What's the difference between your posts and mine, AU?

I am having this problem all the time and it really sucks. It's why I go days without posting.

The new format is an improvement in that there are no more distorted or unreadable words, but on my first encounter with it I was unable to submit a shortish post which contained a modestly sized, innocuous quote. I simply gave up after seven or eight attempts.

It feels like something has a hold of my throat so I can't talk. Very disturbing.

It affects all aspects of posting including PMs.

It is a crude firewall setting on cloudflare. It would be much better to control this on the framework, with a phpBB extension designed for the purpose.

This is not fit for purpose fullstop.

EEERRRRGG!! ! I think (at least partially), I've been grabbing my own throat.

Although I still get the Captcha it's not as bad as before since I found I (that crazy funny guy....scheesh) was somehow still logged in on a mobile device, and when I logged out of that connection I found my Captcha is now just the simple additional step I need to take, instead of the crazy run-a-round I had before.

I hope everyone else with the Captcha "bug" gets off as easily.

Maybe we should all just all boycott WP.

Urg! It's back. Couldn't post at all yesterday evening.

When I heard this was a reason for Tally Man's departure I originally thought "What's the big deal." But now I see why. I've seen things like this drive people away from organizations they belonged to and companies they worked for, and through the years I've seen the responsible group and companies suffer mightily in the long run....but then it was too late. I hope Alex can see the logic in looking for better answers.
