Since a few days, whenever accessing and navigating RFF -using Firefox, I get these annoying captcha screens that ask me to click a button to prove that 'I am not a robot'. RFF is the only site that triggers these Captcha screens. Anyone else has this problem? How to resolve this? Many thanks for your feedback, OtL
 
On Firefox with Apple/Mac devices, I haven’t seen that at all.
Clean out your Firefox cache and see if that helps?
On a Mac, it is under data management in Firefox.
Just be aware that entirely emptying the cache might delete some saved items to other websites.
 
RFF has been occasionally decidedly slow to load for me the last week or so, or even refusing to load, not having anything to do with photos, even short thread pages without photos. Not having issues with any other site, so it’s not my browser or computer.
I thought that was annoying, but counting my blessings knowing that at least I am not beset by the captcha curse. Hoping that resolves for you soon, while praying that the same thing doesn’t visit me.

I am having these same issues. PC, Google Chrome, only on RFF. Seems worse in evening hours.
 
Nope. No issues with Captcha (UK based MacBook using Safari with High Sierra 10.13.6). Very occasionally RFF is slow to load, probably due to connection traffic.
 
Using latest firefox with an old imac; no problems here.


RFF is slow to load for me as well, on occasion, but this is nothing new.
 
OK...I just checked-out and checked-in...and the same problem occurred. Bartender...grateful you look into this annoying problem. Thanks, OtL
 
I've been bouncing between Google Chrome, Firefox and Safari the last month, none of them brought up a Captcha screen. Could it be you've been infected?
 
I suspect everything has slowed down recently as from the 14th they announced Windows 7 was not going to be supported any longer. So did every W7 user try and load W10?


Well, that's my answer and I'm sticking to it or stuck with it.

Dunno...one curious thing, I am no longer automatically logged-in to RFF. I have to do it manually now. So I suppose, RFF's shenanigans have something to to with my current woes.

That's most likely cookies/cache related. Try clearing those in your browser.
 
No such problems here with Firefox on Windows 10, in the US, though I have found RFF to be very slow to load and often completely off-line.

Seen a few Captcha on other than this site. Not a Robot is only slightly annoying. But if required to read twisted letters or pick the scenes with bridges from VERY low rez photos, I don`t even try anymore. Too bad they do not warn you at the beginning so you can just skip it.

Whoever dreamed up that junk needs to find a real job.
