Got one posting a PM two days ago. Not before, nor after. Then again, I rarely post, even in PM so for what it's worth....

I had no problems over my phone last night. Today though using my laptop I'm really having to prove my human existenceDead
M@X if you're reading this thread please do something about this horrendous feature before people start to jump ship. 
It completely destroys my enjoyment of the site and that seems to be the prevailing opinion amongst members judging by posts (-and indeed the lack of posts. Many have already stopped visiting PA until something is done about this sh*t.).

Yep - got the robot test againAngry Identify these nuts why don't ya.

If posting pictures or sending PM also require ketchup tests, life on PA is going to turn into hell... I haven't planned to add some records in the database, but I DO hope I won't have this chaptka thing to pass when I would want to join the covers of the records!

I've never had a problem. Is it because I post on the iPad?

Ok, I've just got my first "I'm not a robot" when posting from home on Firefox.

Was ok earlier when posting on IE. Does browser make a difference?

^ I never get a captcha because apparently the site thinks I'm using windows NT 4, no matter what computer I use. I would imagine it may be something similar for some of you.
Click on the 'active users' link on the forum page and you will see what the site thinks you are using.
Check the conversation between myself and "Someone Else" on the top of page 4 of this thread and you will see where he figured this one out.

I've never had a problem either. Is it because I still correspond via the post? Wink

Nope, at work, I used IE (more or less forced... or at least strongly encouraged) and at home I use Firefox (with adblock on)... and I've been getting these thingies since last Thur of Friday.

I've been asked every time I've posted something since I started posting again... and editing a post made me prove myself twice, it gave me a test before I could actually edit anything, then did it again after I tried to update...


EXCEPT THIS POST YAY.

So, no one found a pattern thus far? No type of machine, router, modem (yes, I'm listing everything I can come up with ), applications (browser, anti-malware), geo-location, type of data in a post, ... ? What parameters did I forget? 

And no one found a loophole.

^ Now I cannot edit this post. 

Edit: I copied-and-pasted scrobble data (images, bars, and numbers) from my Last.fm page into my posts on the "Monthly Last.fm top 10 lists" thread. I used Chrome, IE11, Microsoft Edge - nothing.
