Every time I log on or sometimes change pages, I get this message.

That check is used to keep the bots that were shutting down the site out.
Many other sites I visit on the net also use that same safety scanning tool to weed out the nefarious attempts to infiltrate a site. You'll also notice that this site hasn't been shut down since the owners have installed this security measure. I have also noticed that after I've logged in for the last few weeks/month, I don't have to hit the square with a cursor any longer. It seems that the security system has my IP address and it now does a scan automatically. |

In addition to the above I have noticed that if I clean out my interweb search history that I no longer have to be verified every time I change pages.

taking the extra 30 seconds to log in is a blessing compared to what it used to be.
Thanks to Admin for fixing

I'm getting kicked off the site and having this pop up every ten minutes. Have to re-verify to get back on. 4 times so far in the past 45 minutes. PITA.

I wonder if it works w/ a dog or cats paw. lol. You’ll still be screwing the man.
So the bots don’t have to click on anything, why not have a bots click here button. |

Probably need to use a different browser. I have never tried the App The bots do mass joins by program , and usually spoofed or shell account IP's. That's what the Captcha is diagnosing in it's cycle. Very rarely do I have to check mark the human box. But at least 1 out of 10 clicks it will recycle the Captcha. |

Is it possibly because of different operating systems?
For me, using my Windows 11 machine works fairly well, but using the old Windows 7 system on this site is impossible. Same address. Jon

I agree Jon. I use a Windows 7 computer to be logged in here. The CLOUDFLARE app keeps me out for 10 mins sometimes. Casual reading using the phone no problem.

Is it up to date? I think the browser has a lot to do with it. Most browsers now have some form of 'security' settings. The verification uses a cookie or something for the browser to know if you're verified. Maybe the cookie setting is expiring requiring a new verification? Mine seems to need renewed about every 10 minutes or so, depending if I'm actually reading/using the forum. I usually do other stuff in different tabs. When I come back it needs verified.

My experience with Windows 11/Edge sounds typical.... the verification repeats about every 10 minutes and I have to click the box about 1 in 10 iterations.
I like this MUCH better than having the site shut down. I understand the software actually "runs" inside the browser and has to communicate with a server that is making the determination. So a lot going on. Maybe older browsers don't let the software run well? |

Adds about 3 seconds to logging on with my IPhone more than worth it the way things were going.

At least it doesn't ask me to update my password !!! "Sorry - invalid password.
