ByGrace3 Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 What is up with the captcha appearing tonight when posting? The words don't even have to be right to post...but I have never had that on here before? Am I missing something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura Corin Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I am not seeing this. Is it still happening? Moderator Happened to me ten minutes ago. It seems more common if you quote someone or edit your own post. ETA: had to Captcha to post the above. ETA2: then had to Captcha to post the edit.

TKDmom Posted July 15, 2013 Share Posted July 15, 2013 I just got it too. But it's recaptcha. Just think, you are helping to digitize the web. ;) For your viewing pleasure while you are being annoyed...http://www.ted.com/talks/luis_von_ahn_massive_scale_online_collaboration.html This is about a different program, but he starts out discussing captcha and recaptcha. ETA: It's intermittent. I didn't get a captcha to post this. ETA2: But I did get a captcha to edit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ByGrace3 Posted July 15, 2013 Author Share Posted July 15, 2013 Yup intermittent. And I find it odd that you don't even have to get the captch right to have it approved. ;) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amy Jo Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 So what is with the catchpa anyway? Just got one trying to edit a post (after I clicked to submit the modified post). Sorry I didn't see this thread, or I'd have taken a screen shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Walking-Iris Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I had this happen twice. The first time was yesterday. And then this morning. It asked for the captcha after I clicked post. I'm wondering if it will happen tomorrow too. Seems to be a one time a day thing for me. ETA: Okay never mind. It just happened twice in a row. The captcha page says to run anti virus scans to prevent this in the future? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisoncooks Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I just sent screen shots to the email above. I've gotten these several times in the past few days -- mostly if I try to edit a classifieds post. Frustrated me tried to edit the same post 5 times, got captcha over and over. Post never was edited when I went through it. :p FWIW, I also cannot post a pic in the classifieds today -- perhaps an unrelated problem.

Walking-Iris Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Mine is happening in the regular forums, so it's not necessarily classifieds related. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mom2TheTeam Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 This is driving me nuts. It's happening almost constantly to me...it is making me nervous honestly Let me know if you need another screenshot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasmama Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 This has happened to me twice while posting an edit of an original post, both in the general board, not the classifieds. It happened on my work and home computers. I have no idea how to take a screen shot. Sorry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
texasmama Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 I have googled how to take a screenshot and cannot seem to do it. I just got a captcha when I tried to edit my above post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nmoira Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 If you're going to compose a post likely to be edited as you go, switch to Mobile View (in the bottom left corner of the screen) *before* you start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seasider Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 Just so you know... About noon today (CDT) I was attempting to reply to posts from my iphone using the safari browser. I typed in a reply, then upon hitting "post" i got a screen saying that my code didn't match. I was also bumped from being signed in. I never got a captcha screen, I just got a message that led me to believe the captcha failed. This happened twice. In recent days, I have been getting logged out upon changing pages or returning to a main page after reading a thread. Just thought I'd let you know in case it helps with diagnosing issues.

nmoira Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Ok all, This should have been resolved. Our CDN Cloudflare had pushed an update to their system at the same time we did our update and they had a bug. I have been told it is now resolved. But if it is still happening please post here so I can notify them. John And I'm got one quoting you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrysalis Academy Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Yep, it's just happened to me for the first, second, and third time just now, and in one case I lost a long post. The really weird thing is that the captcha things are super hard to read . . . maybe I'm not human after all? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Violet Crown Posted July 19, 2013 Share Posted July 19, 2013 Just got this for the first time today, only when editing posts - I have to edit nearly every post because of poor vision, so I'd have surely noticed if it had been an issue for my posts before. (Also because of poor vision, I never get the captcha right, but somehow it always lets me through here.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
