Hopefully it doesn't become a permanent addition. I've noticed other sites using it over the past few weeks so maybe something is going on. :?

Hey, I'm 40% Russian! ...but 60% Italian. Verified by AncestryDNA. :mrgreen: It wouldn't surprise me though if either them or China were involved in some way.

It's probably the bookface thing trying to assert dominance over the superior forum site. Bookface is so evil.

Thanks for staying on top of this issue!

You're maybe seeing a different filter that you have to interact with? This latest one I had to put in place is just for US based traffic, and requires no user input.

Nah, it's justa musta "ensure I'm not a bot" whirlpool thinker swirl that delays entry. It's really not an issue, just delays me from reaching my precious from 5-15 seconds. VPN or not. Anything to protect the site, seriously, I was being a bit of a smartarse.

Oh? Only the US traffic?... Just letting your Russian and Italian "friends" right on in?? :P :mrgreen:

Dunno about users in the more Eastern parts of the globe but I just get a white screen saying, "RC10TALK.COM is trying to determine if you are human". Though, I know people who're still trying to figure that out. :mrgreen:

It's done it to me three times today, and I haven't cleared anything.

It also gives me a prompt when I refresh the page.

Oh wow, that's no fun. Wonder why it's treating users differently. Mind of it's own? A.I. with attitude? Oh crap... is it Master Control and we're stuck inside TRON??

...Dibs on the light cycle!
