Again, this morning, I had the challenge question. Answered correctly the first try. Then tells me I might still be a robot, please answer another challenge question. Which I did and it immediately sends me to the forum.


I hate wiping cookies as that usually takes quite a bit of time to put all the passwords in to get back in order. This is several days in a row the challenge has come up......

I'm also getting the challenge question.  I have wiped my cookies and also ran a virus scan.

Sorry about that, but there is nothing I can do about it.
I'm using a world wide international database system in trying to fight spam etc, and the IP address you are coming from has been using to send spam etc.
NB!  I don't say you have done so, but some providers are recycling the IP address among users - and then this can happen.

Well, after wiping cookies ( and the work that comes from putting in passwords on every site I visit ), I still get the challenge question. Actually two questions, and it says the first one was correct. I don't care for this at all.


I will visit the site in a few weeks and see if this is corrected. I consider it unacceptable to have to answer these questions every time I visit.

I also get the 'challenge' questions, but not every time I visit the site. Curious?

I'm getting the challenge question on my phone. Must be very aggressive spam filter. I understand the reason for it but seems a bit aggressive to me.

I have now reset the filter - as there was more than 6000 entries in the spam filter for the last 3 mnts  ;(


Some of you therefor has to re reply in the login process "again" - sorry - but hope it can help for the other ones having problems.

I do appreciate the work and money it takes to run a site. This is a unique site and still has that personal non commercial feel.


I have not logged on here without challenge questions since the change was made. I done what was asked, wiped cookies and so forth. This IP is not a problem.


There comes a time when something doesn't work. This site isn't working if it rejects those who would visit and hopefully contribute.


I will check back in after a couple weeks or so. Never a problem on any other site, so I know this site can be adjusted to work. PLEASE!

I have not had a problem logging in, but I did set it to "forever" so have not had to log in again.
Just tried out and then logging back in with no problems.

I don't have to log in, that works just fine.


Came back after a few weeks. Still have the challenge questions.


This is simply ridiculous. There is no excuse I can fathom for doing this.


If you don't want someone around, I guess this works quite well!
