So I typed a long time for a post and when try to post is it did not do a thing. Meanwhile on another tab I was browsing over the forum and needed to check the cloudflare checkbox again. The post was still trying and when I did again hit the button to post is it did post my reaction. Very annoying.

Can you please try clearing your cache and cookies for the site, and then see if you have to keep verifying

Cleared cache, site data, tried from multiple different devices. No change, still repeatedly prompts.

Are you using a VPN? Can you also try this in a private browser?

Roelof 11-25-2025 03:29 PM

No VPN and in an Inprivate tab I also get the cloudflare checkbox

Can you please try restarting your device as well?

Roelof 11-26-2025 08:45 AM

Machine has been rebooted after some updates, I also tried a different browser and still got the checkbox. Maybe it is because I am from Europe and so a different cloudflare server?

It could be. It's odd that it's still happening even in a private browser. Cloudflare verifications happen because it thinks it is protecting the site against a potential bot. So something with your IP address is probably tripping it up. You could try a VPN- which is oftentimes the thing we tell people to turn off when they get a bunch of verifications. But in your case, i'm wondering if it will fix it.

Gigaplex is also not living in the US and experience the same thing. I will not try a VP, I will just wait until this goes over but maybe your hosting provider can tell more or talk with cloudflare.

gigaplex 11-26-2025 10:45 PM

Private browser: verification issue persists, and prompts far more frequently because it doesn't maintain the verification cookie
Restart device: verification issue persists
No VPN from Australia: verification issue persists
VPN to Sweden: verification issue persists
VPN to UK: verification issue persists
VPN to US: no verification required

Seems like it assumes everyone outside the US is likely a bot.

Last week Cloudflare had a huge issue that probably is not completely solved Cloudflare Status

This verification thing started before that outage.

Yes, several days before, IIRC.
