Checking your browser before accessing Hackforums.net. - Meave - Sep 9, 2017
Anyone else getting this a lot?
Seems that every other post I make it disbands my post with an error message the the upload size is too big or something along those lines, here is the thing which causes it:

Just a bit tedious having to rewrite many of my posts.

Usually does it when I start a new session, doesn't really bother me though

happens every now and again nothing i mind tbh

Happens rarely to me, just ignore it or clear your cache and shift + F5

Oh, odd, happens every few minutes to me D:
* - Armada - Sep 9, 2017
I get that message very randomly, usually when I am accessing the site from my cellular connection...
If it happened constantly, I would find it very annoying however....

You need to upgrade(lol) . Seriously, I've never experienced this and I access HF from multiple different devices and IPs.

Oh, welp, upgrading in a few days, hopefully that'll fix it >.>

Upgrading should not effect the captcha. What will effect it is your origin IP and how often it changes. Also the settings in your browser. If for instance you are in private mode. That may cause your session to continually restart. Or if you're on a dynamic mobile IP that changes IP often.
In any case it's on your end.

Upgdrading your account won’t help you in this case. The issue is with cloudflare.
Disable any kind of VPN, proxy, user-agent switcher and upgrade to the latest version of your browser. Usually helps and disappears.
If it still doesn’t work then you’ll probably have to wait a day or a couple of them.

Every few minutes with current session and no cookie cleaning done? If yes, may i ask where you're from?
That check shouldn't trigger more than once per normal session.

I get it maybe three times a week, usually when first accessing Hack Forums after turning my computer on. I almost always get it on my mobile phone however.

For anyone else with the issue, it was because of my user agent switcher, thanks for the fix, I can browse freely now! :D
Ugh, such a small stupid mistake D:

Use to happen to me before until I stayed with the same IP.
