Ironically, I've been having less issues using NordVPN the past 2 days, which normally triggers this sort of verification due to massive use of the same IP address on multiple other websites

Yes, that's my solution. VPN to the UK and the constant annoying reverification prompts will disappear. Show how pointless the Cloudflare exercise really is IMHO.

I’m still having to check the box. And half the time the box doesn’t even appear, so Cloudflare just spins and spins. The only solution is to use a different browser every time so that it forces the box to appear. I am just not coming to FT as much anymore because this is an annoying deterrent.

Made a long post today - when I clicked on "Post Reply" I was redirected back to the cloudflare page. after that my post was gone. I could not retreive it with browser-back. That's really .......
I can understand that the page must be protected against bot attacks - BUT other pages do it much better - AND when I am logged in as long standing member with almost 6000 posts I should not bee required to proove every 10 minutes that I am a human with content going to the trash when posting.

t" popup much of late, it has happened and I have lost replies in the exact manner described here. It is SUPER frustrating.
