    I can only assume its picking up the high number of "members" from where I work as a problem. Which is rather absurd.

    Must be even more where I work: we don't even see a cloud flare thing, just get a network timeout. (NB, multinational, 000s of employees in Ireland)

    Stuck in an loop of CAPTCHAs on Chrome, back to using Firefox.

    A quick update for you all before the weekend.

    Rónán has relaxed the CloudFlare settings a bit so hopefully some of the missing `css` and `js` issues for people will be eliminated.

    Captcha settings have been changed so you should only have to complete one every 8 hours now.

    Those of you outside of Ireland or those coming from certain ISPs will still have tight restrictions but we'd hope to start loosening those controls again next week, provided we come through the weekend unscathed.

    Edited to add: some people are reporting logging in with correct details but being sent back to the home page. The solution to this for the moment is to tick 'Stay logged in' when logging in.

    I get network timeout on the laptop and desktop in the office.

    Regarding feedback from boards above explains it for me now. My company run traffic through their own isp that's from outside of Ireland.

    I got stuck in an endless CAPTCHA loop. Posting from Canada through my work internet. Finally got through after clearing my cookies & cache again.


  • Registered Users Posts: 12,812 ✭✭✭✭bear1


    I had to go through the fb link just to access boards. My ip is from abroad but it was working fine this morning and now I get captcha on repeat, enter the code and it gives me another code to enter and so on and so forth.
    Do I need to keep logging in via fb to access boards?

    Cloudflare is broken!

    It wont accept answers so I'm completely shut out now. Posting this in text mode on a phone.

    Also why no updates on twitter anymore?

    Difficult enpugh just to post here.

    It eventually worked for me.

    I waited and refreshed over and over and eventually got the new style verification pictures.

    Having two problems on multiple devices:

    On desktop, the captcha security is stuck in a loop. I'm having to enter the code infinite times and it never lets me into the boards

    On iPhone and iPad, the style sheets are missing; everything is white

    Any update on the double posting? I have gone to the trouble of deleting several of my own, but I've given up at this stage

    It is quite embarrassing looking for the site if I'm honest :o
