July 1Jul 1 With the way the forums have been behaving for a number of months - sluggish, logging people out frequently, random temporary IP bans, eating posts - I imagine it has gotten to be a bit much for some people... Quote Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

Are you getting the Azure anti bot check, every hour? "because they filled mommy with enough mythic power to become a demi-god" - KP
Friday at 08:24 AM5 days Yes, I keep getting checked for botness. Unobtrusively informing you about my new ebook (which you should feel free to read and shower with praise).

Friday at 11:19 AM5 days I think they are just casting a big net. We mods are required to use 2 factor authentication, and I can be logged in and viewing the mod forum, and it will still hit me with a bot check if I even move between threads in the mod forum. It doesnt have any regard for permissions.
Friday at 01:00 PM5 days The issue is how aggressive the checks are. I would understand if it was per browser session or something, but it was happening hourly. "because they filled mommy with enough mythic power to become a demi-god" - KP
