Does CloudFlare annoy anyone else?

[Simple]

Does the random CloudFlare checks annoy anyone else or am I the only one? I really wish it could be removed or something. I hate when it does it when I'm about to send a PM and I have to re-type the message or when I'm gonna post something..

Anyone else?

Yes, it does annoy me, but we need it. It protects DDoS attacks and keeps the site up.

I always open a new tab with FK to check CloudFlare before I finish a big PM, thread or post.

Just click the back arrow and go back to the message, it'll still be there.
It doesn't bother me, it's not too often and it helps the site a lot. I'd like for it to stay.

I guess I could try that, but it would be annoying having to do it every time, but I guess it keeps the site up and running.

I was wondering what that was for.. if its beneficial towards the site.. shit i dont mind it

It usually ruins my PM's.

EVERYTIME I'm about to post it interrupts me.

Oh yes it does, but as long as it keeps the site safe and running, i don't mind.

It's annoying but if FK goes down I'll be bored, and I can only look at so much stuff on Reddit before I run out of stuff on there

I think the pro version of CloudFlare DDoS protection would fix this issue. The pro version is the one you see on Hack Forums and is more integrated into the actual site and interrupts a lot less. Upgrading to pro would cost a lot more per month and I don't think it is feasible for FK at the moment. Money should be spent on creating a new theme to draw new members and hopefully bring back some old ones

CloudFlare doesn't random check. If you get the challenge page or browser check, then your IP is considered suspicious. I never get those.

Well I guess most of our IP's are suspicious, Jimmy. Makes no sense, but alright.

 

[Jimmy]

But that's how it works.

It doesn't happen to me on LF. So why only here?

Depends on what their servers considers you. Also, there is no set time between which browser check occurs.

Cloudflare is there for a reason and will not be removed.
