Well... a few of us have been wondering...

Happening to me too

Given that Inc had to shut down the whole site due to a number of DOS attacks recently I reckon it's a small price to pay. At least he didn't go with Captcha, or we'd have to identify all the pics with bridges or crosswalks ( whatever they are ) or bicycles every time we visited. Cloudflare only takes a couple of seconds. Welcome to the future.

He did say...

Strewth! Imagine the kerfuffle if you had chosen 'R2D2Dave' for a forum moniker!

Didn't get the request for proof.

I know if you have cleared all history you will be asked for proof. I cleared all history on booting up this morning. I first went to Yahoo (proof required) then to AULRO (no proof required). Does the successful proof hang around in your browser history and therefore AULRO has no reason to have you run the test again? If I go back to yahoo it will not ask for proof again, unless I have cleared history since last visit. Your mouse movements and other prior searches may stop the request for proof. Hmmm...I attached a link to an explanation of captcha...if you see 'just a moment' where the link should be then that's not my doing.

Just a moment...

its either that or shut the place down as it was unusable with system loads 5 times what it was setup to handle and it went on for days and days

i now have to spend more money each month to keep the place alive but it is what it is..

Yep. I dont really see why it would bother anyone. As far as I am concerned if it makes load on your system less and improves any form of security I'm for it.
AULRO is a wealth of info and its worth is more than anyone (as in paid users) could put in.

I'm also sure if you put a payment link somewhere, on a website? that people could also give a one off payment, I have no doubt there would be people out there that would give to the cause.

I pay (willingly) each month ($10) to LR workshop as I find it a wealth of info and of value.

Nice job INC. Its a wild world out there online now. Russian, Chinese, North K and the rest of the hacking world is a nasty place.
