Past few days, I am asked to verify my humanity every time I visit this forum. I don't need to log in again, just check the box, which I think any half-trained AI could do as well.
Did I change something on my end, or is this happening to everyone?

I get the checking I'm a human, but haven't needed to tick a box yet to confirm it.

I am having so major load issues caused by spammers and bots at the moment and believe it or not that stops them in their tracks
The issues they are causing is for the forum to go offline but having that on keeps the bots away and the forum online which is my main aim at the moment
I am trying a few things in the background to see if I can stop them using other methods so please bear with me

I get it too, but not a problem to just check the box. Beats the issues spammers and scammers cause.

I've just had to log in for the first time in years. I don't mind doing that, though, if it's needed to keep the website safe.

That's probably just a cookie issue but I have disabled the extra check for now
