Captcha problems

I understand why Captcha was added, due to attacks on the site, but it's making the site virtually unusable for me. I have to redo Captcha in between every single page I open. So, I click on, say, "Site Feedback"---I have to do Captcha to open it. Then if I want to read a topic---have to do Captcha to open that topic. If that topic is two pages long---have to do Captcha to get to Page 2.

My IP address has not changed. I'm not running any software that should explain it (e.g., I'm not blocking my IP address).

The strangest part is that I don't have to log back in each time, so the site itself recognizes me, but it still requires Captcha every time I click on anything. Even if I get a notification of a reply on a thread that I'm following, I have to do Captcha to open my notifications, and then I have to do it AGAIN in order to open the thread itself. I had to do it to click  on "New Topic," and I'm sure I'll have to do it again to submit this topic.

Are there any plans to remove Captcha once the attacks stop? It's maddening.

 
Thank you to bring this to my attention.

To be honest i have no knowledge of this problem.

I would like to hear if other members also have this problem.

In the mean time the attacks are stopped ( but like we all know it can start again any time )

I have lowered the security possible your problem is gone now.

Thanks! That does seem to have taken care of it!

Knock on wood, anyway....I haven't gotten the Captcha the last couple times I've clicked on something....

I was curious, too, to see if others were having the same problem, but it was so frustrating to try to look through the forum with that happening that I just started a new thread.

But, yeah, I've now clicked on probably five different pages or so and I haven't been getting the Captcha every time anymore.

Thanks for taking care of it! 🥰

 
Ironically enough, when I went to post that last message, I DID get the Captcha again! But I can handle getting it once in a while, just not every single click! I'll follow up again if it seems to still be happening a lot.

 
For the past few days I'll click to log in then it will send me to the Captcha screen. I complete it then it sends me back tonthe log in screen again and I have to re enter the info. Not a huge deal but figured I'd mention since it's related here.

 
@Dissolve That is normal Captcha protection behavior. Usually it will ask for captcha again if you are signing in or trying to sign up.  This help mitigate bots and ddos stuff i think.

 
@DoomKitty I know but it used to only have me sign in once. Now it's 2 times, 1 before Captcha and again after Captcha. It's not a big deal but it just started the duplication a few days ago. Last week I would click sign in and the Captcha would appear first then I could sign in.

 
ohhhhhh sorry.  i thought you were saying it made you do captcha twice, not sign in twice! That is very odd.

  1. iamgroot @ iamgroot: Some customers were scammed by someone using a nearly identical email address. So I’m planning to change my email to one that uses my official website domain, so it can’t be easily copied and everyone can stay safe from scammers. Here is our new official email address from now on. support@mediattics.com
  2. fyjclol @ fyjclol: Also wondering what happened to the guy with the btc predictions. And +1 for fooseball
  3. L @ LW815: 90% of the time when I see it, it’s being used for exactly what it’s not supposed to be used for(with the exception of you and Layne talking fooseball)
  4. L @ LW815: I’d say it’s fair enough game to discuss whatever you wanna discuss(within the rules ofc) and if people don’t like it oh well. It’s not like the shoutbox is constantly popping off with other discussion lol
  5. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: Well sorry if I bother anyone with my sports talk :) much love to all. Happy holidays.
  6. Gracie5 @ Gracie5: Shout box is for sports, hey, Happy Thanksgiving. It’s not for those other things people like to bring up. Please use or start a thread in the appropriate place.
  7. L @ LW815: Better to push other worse discussions out of sight IMO and see random sport shit, but also kinda makes it hard to have that content removed if need be. I don’t know how to view the entire shoutbox recent history but I know it’s possible lol so it’s both a good and bad thing tbh
  8. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: exactly
  9. L @ LW815: I agree @Ketmaster but their lengthy sport discussions usually tend to happen at convenient times, like when somebody is talking about or asking things that the shoutbox also isn’t meant for(that are worse than random sport talks)
  10. Ketmaster @ Ketmaster: I appreciate the good vibes but I agree sports stuff should like be in a thread or PM or something, not a sports guy so it is kinda like wtf is happening people are messaging each other in a shoutbox
  11. T @ timyboy: Where is the guy with the BTC predictions?
  12. F @ Floaty: like them using the shout box tbh, its appreciated good vibes. Not sure if the box has another purpose seems like its the correct use though
  13. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Yeah I'll start a thread for us in the Sports section later this morning.
  14. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain Yeah I hated Canales' playcalling. Run the ball. That's what 9ers did since they knew it'd be that type of game. But at the same time, the panthers have a young core, and that was their biggest game in years lol. I understand MNF throwing off the passing game sync and shit just from being hyped up.
  15. L @ luquitoad: Yall should start a sports thread and keep it out of the shoutbox..... just a suggestion .
  16. L @ Layne_Cobain: I don’t think we’ll be in prime time again anytime soon 😂
  17. L @ Layne_Cobain: What a horrific game @tiquanunderwood seeiously embarrassing. Defense did their job Bryce the offense and Canales play calling has been atrocious
  18. tiquanunderwood @ tiquanunderwood: @Layne_Cobain legoooo panthers babbyyyyy
  19. L @ Layne_Cobain: Congrats!!! @tiquanunderwood 5 in a row to climb back into it is amazing… and @MCAJB6122 I agree 💯did not see that coming. Can’t recall the last time there was this much parity across the league it’s insane
  20. M @ MCAJB6122: Chicago at 8-3 has to be the surprise of the season so far
