freitasm:
@oblivian it was something to do with your current IP address. I have sent a PM.

@batman I couldn't see any captcha for your current IP address in the last 72 hours.

@Handle9 I can see only one captcha event for your current IP - it's not "ramping up" but if you use more than one IP let me know.

@jonb I couldn't see any captcha for your current IP address in the last 72 hours.

There are two types of captcha in use: the automatic one (solved by your computer) is shown on instruction from the Geekzone server and based on a series of our own calculations. The ones you folks saw is posted by Cloudflare automatically. I've sent a PM to @oblivian and @Handle9.

The ones I've noticed are on mobile so possibly on mobile data.

It isn't currently affecting me no, more to determine what the problem is that is needing solving by Captcha. If it is spam accounts then definitely enforce it for new accounts, with a bit of business rules about established users not seeing it.

@freitasm is wanting feedback on this mock-up Capacha challenge before implementing it in Production:

I said it'll keep @sbiddle out so that is a win! All in favor?

constant issues with this . Again

Unfortunately, If I get the capture I now just give up what I was trying to post.

Sometimes no capture, sometime capture even after Ive allready posted a reply in another topic

I see two captchas challenges and the last 72 hours for your IP address and that's because it was malformed URL.

Did you see it in more than one IP address?

How are you getting to this URL? Clicking a link or entering from the address bar?

Also, two is not "constant". Out of 1380 requests there were 2 that were challenged...
