Got that a couple of time it's probably the anti PM spam system :)
* - Tiszy - Sep 20, 2012
This is a system to prevent spamming bots and DDoSing, etc. You shouldn't worry, I get that too very often.

You should not, its to prevent HF from being DDosed/ from countries with high "Black hat" activity %.

Nah you're okay bro. It's cloudflare's system that detects "spam."
You're good bro. 👍

I haven't gotten that at all today so far.
Once I forgot to disable my proxy then tried accessing hf and got that.
