I am testing something and you might see some automatic captcha challenges. These shouldn't be more than once a month or around that.

I've had a few today, most have been OK, but one of my posts was lost. Second time I posted the message it was fine.

The challenge lasts for 30 days on your browser. I have raised a ticket about a couple of cases already.

Lucky I copied my text for a reply.

Just a few mins ago:
Automatic browser being checked. Wait... wait. Resource unavailable page. (Bad redirect?)

Back. Submit..same.

Reload entire thread. Post copied text, checking browser ... submitted.

Haven't had a single one. I could be an outlier though.




Ramblings from a mysterious lady who's into tech. Warning I may often create zingers.
