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.

Could you explain what redirecting your connection means? What exactly are you seeing? What URL are you looking at? DO you know what your IP is? The more information about the symptoms I get the more chance I have of working out the issue.

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.

    • Last time I looked they didn't have a shredder, and when I enquired I was told that they were in the process of getting new ones (I'm not sure why they couldn't have kept the old ones till they got the new ones - maybe they were broken). I was told to keep looking on their website. Hopefully it will be soon as I presently have masses of stuff I need to shred, and other methods of confidential disposal like soaking in the bath don't appeal at the moment!
    • Many moons ago, ED  forum members used to meet up on a regular basis (I think monthly) in a different local.pub each time to get to know each other and to have a chat over a drink. To help people like me who are rubbish at remembering names and faces, labels were provided! A space was reserved in the pub each time. If anyone would be interested in this (or else thinks it's a very bad idea!) , please either post on here or PM me. The ED demographic has greatly changed, and many of those original forum members have moved out of the area, so possibly this may no longer work for various reasons. My partner Nygel and I are happy to arrange the first one, but hopefully other people might step up to help after that, as we couldn't undertake to arrange them all on a regular basis, though we are  happy to take turns.
    • Just wanted to remind everyone of this facility.  It is in the Leisure Centre foyer and so accessible during the normal opening hours.  I've just used the SDS drill (which comes with drill and chisel bits and eye & ear protection) for under a tenner for a day.  Equipment was in very good nick and process was more easier and more convenient that traditional hire shop. https://libraryofthings.co.uk/
    • I would have asked, but I forgot! Just checked, and not only is today's jab not on there, which perhaps isn't surprising, but nor is last year's 😮
