 | Quad5point1 SUBS Member since Jul 2012 10751 Points | Whenever I switch say from 45spaces to 45worlds I get a momentary screen that says something like "Just checking you're Human". Is this a new thing, and what's it for? |

 | Hawkmarty SUBS Do You Like It Here Now Member since Dec 2012 3064 Points Moderator | It is new and is a ramp up of the site security. |

 | Burton LeB SUBS You don't see many of the rare ones, do you? Member since Jul 2012 1977 Points | I'm seeing a very basic display page here (but not on 45cat) when I use my Firefox browser but not when I use Opera. Is this just a temporary glitch? Edited by Burton LeB on 26th Oct 2024, 11:15 AM |

45worlds is working fine and everything back to normal. |

 | Magic Marmalade If you're not lost... It's not an adventure! Member since Jun 2014 3774 Points Moderator | I get that now, and it does make me panic, as I am not entirely convinced I am human  ...But I do the dance, and the system is suitably convinced I am. |

 | xiphophilos Member since Dec 2013 3367 Points Moderator | I'm not sure either how the system determines that I am human but it's reassuring that it does decide that every single time so far without fail. In any case, it's probably a good idea to ramp up security against potential hacking bots, given that even the Internet Archive got recently hacked and was forced to go offline for about 2 weeks. I'm not sure what the hackers hoped to achieve with this, but I can't imagine they were hoping to make a lot of money there. Edited by moderator on 3rd Nov 2024, 8:35 PM |

 | goodbear66 Who's reaching out to capture a moment? Member since Jan 2012 12644 Points | This human reality check comes up very often and currently on almost every edit action or entry check. Not the intention? Post scriptum: seems to have corrected itself.... Edited by goodbear66 on 9th Nov 2024, 11:50 AM |

| 23skidoo Member since Jul 2014 4208 Points | It is sometimes startling because on my browser the screen goes dark (the check is stuck in "night mode" for some reason. But I've had no issues with it yet, and much prefer it over the annoying Captcha option. That said, one would think registered users of good standing wouldn't need it. But it's probably easier/less expensive to do it for everyone than set up a system that bypasses a certain class of user. Is this still used for people who subscribe? |

 | zabadak Caddacack oh da ca-caddacack, shy shy skagellack Member since Jun 2010 4192 Points | OK, on 45Cat, I just got asked whether I was over or under 18 years old. This was after I'd logged in!  |

| Whyperion SUBS Too Many Records , Too Little Time Member since Jan 2013 306 Points | Zab I think it needs to check the age cookie to ensure you dont see 18+ material , dodgy punk singles and obs the videos/films section of the 18 rated movies |

45worlds is working fine and everything back to normal. It fails everytime, so I will no longer post images. Thank you for the stupidity. |

| scrough No picture 'cos I'm not into 45rpm :( Member since Jan 2013 3482 Points Moderator | I'm using firefox - you get an basic 'Checking You Are Human' page and if you tick the box everything goes smoothly. But if you don't tick the box, you get an error page  |

| 23skidoo Member since Jul 2014 4208 Points | The check is buggy. It's asking me to click the "Verify you're human" thing every time I upload an image. You'd think being a registered member would allow at least one click per session. Or is this something you need to be a paid member for? |

| Orbiting Cat Member since Jan 2008 1191 Points Administrator | We're trying to find the balance between making the website secure and making the website easy to use for members. There is a huge amount of automated/fake/bot/AI traffic that hits our website (and probably all websites). So we need to use a firewall to filter out bad traffic. If you're using a normal internet connection then you shouldn't be seeing a "verify" page, and you should definitely only be seeing it once per visit. I'll look at tweaking the settings. |

 | getalife So many questions, so few answers Member since Nov 2010 886 Points Moderator | I have had no problems with this on my phone or iPads, though I have not uploaded anything for a while so can’t say about uploading images. |

| Redpunk SUBS Crates Are For Digging Member since Aug 2012 25538 Points Moderator | Happens about once a session when uploading images no big deal. |
