It was Clouldflare after all ...

I was surprised to see this today:)
When is the CAPTCHA check triggered ? I posted without going trough this step.

EDIT>

No CAPTCHA required to post this thread.
Happen when I preview a post with code tags in it , and then happen again when I posted it.



Edit 2:

I tried to edit the OP and i got this one >



Tried a few different scenarios.
It's not tag based, not a character limit based. It's most likely random occurring and this will be a perfect solution to the spam bot problem

I think it’s a Cloudflare error.
I noticed this error in many sites so I do not think the problem/update is related to the forum?
Do you use public VPN?

That's just Cloudflare's random number generator proprietary algorithms deeming your actions to be "suspicious". It's nothing to do with theymos.

It could be Clouldflare but I've never seen requiring captcha til now. I've faced the "5 seconds waiting screen" quite often before.
I guess theymos can activate/deactivate different features of CloudFlare as well.

Confimred that is CloudFlare
locking this one....
