    BG Captcha?

    Everytime I go to BG now there is a captcha page I have to click through before I can login. Is this really necessary?

    Hmm... it usually does this only when you're in a shady neighborhood.

    Not sure if others are having issues, but the Captcha over the last few weeks has been in overdrive for me.

    I've never even seen Captcha until two weeks ago, and now i see it daily. Even a few times today. Not sure if it is something I'm doing, but i haven't changed my surfing habits on this forum.

    At the top of this page you should see a header that says:
    Tech Info
    Your IP: X.X.X.X
    Browser: ...
    OS: ...
    Paste me the content of that in private.

    From what I've seen so far it seems the latest version of Chrome 91.0 released on May 25th triggers a lot of bot alerts.

    Chrome trying to be smart and pre-caching pages.

    Tried to make the captcha less annoying but there's nothing much I can do until CloudFlare fix their shit to support the latest version of Chrome.

    Thanks!

    Edit: Would rather deal with it than have more bots anyways.

    Just to follow up, i haven't had one since you did whatever you did.

    Thanks.

    I could have bought an 11 pull and have 1000 gems left over, but all I got was this silly title.

    I have gotten a Captcha once in a while, but I reload the page and skips it.

    Just got the captcha on mobile for the first time. Haven't seen it for days on browser.
