First thing to say is that it's nothing to worry about, I installed Cloudflare about three weeks ago and it's safe. It's a 'barrier' to the forum that prevents dodgy robots/spammers accessing the site but I believe it's still just learning what's good and bad right now and so there may be the odd screen like that appearing.


Let me know if it continues to happen and is a problem and I'll see if I can adjust it.

It's more a question of what your PC is doing to it. There's something about your PC that means it has to to go through some hoops. I'll see if I can add you to the safe IP list.


As for lonely bots, I think that's just way beyond the realm of forum technology to get involved with.

I'm getting this orange CloudFlare/Captcha message, too, it started last Saturday. Found it a bit worrying, so I'm slightly relieved it seems it's not just me. When I click back on the EDF on my shortcuts bar it goes away, but reappears next time I visit, or sometimes pops up again in the same session if I'm on the forum a while. Sometimes the message says 'You're nearly there', though I've been careful not to click anywhere in the Cloudflare window.


I'm using Safari on a Mac. It's not happening at work, where we have a pc using Google Chrome.

    • Just wondering- what were they arrested for? If you remember 
    • Cyclists certainly do have a bit of a perception problem at the moment and when I cycle I see a lot of examples of arrogance and ignorance that gives all cyclists a bad name - it does seem that many cyclists have caught the entitlement bug many drivers seem to have.
    • But Spartacus didn't mention the significant amounts of land being used for car storage - that was most definitely you.   And I am afraid when you apply your same measure to other transport uses (like cycleways and cycle lanes - Malumbu is your stat on the 360 kms of cycle network cycleways or cycle lanes?) then it most definitely is relevant for the debate.   Should we assume then that if all this ULEZ money and government bailout money is being poured into TFL then the system is, financially at least, broken or is it a case that the money is being mis-spent (like the DV junction project)?    
    • Contact your SNT (police). An old friend of mine (now deceased) was a 'victim' of a door to door scam some years ago. He mentioned it to our local SNT police officers who found that several ED residents had been visited by these ;salespeople. It was arranged that my friend asked the scammers to return on a certain day and time when he had some money to purchase their goods. Police in plain clothes outside in street watching. with a uniformed officer in the house - scammers returned and were arrested.
