Strange, it doesn't appear for me. I believe that my IP, although dynamic, shouldn't change very often due to my ISP, and I've also been connected to MT all the time lately, so maybe that explains why this CAPTCHA doesn't appear for me. BTW, is everything okay with you?

Currently everything is Okay; it does not last long.

I have seen human verification requests on MT, although not frequent, in addition to "bad gateway" form time to time, and few other servers issues.

Same here.

Don't think that matters, I'm always signed in and I got the captcha.

Ditto.

Still feels a little 'sluggish' at times, but I couldn't even got on here yesterday - well I could hit the main page and that was about it!

Yes, it's the same DDOS attack from a few hours ago. We will stop it. Thank you for the report.

I thought I was having issues with internet connection, thanks for the update!

No worries, it wasn’t on your end. We were hit with a massive DDoS attack coming from China & Hong Kong, which caused the slowdown and those Cloudflare errors. Everything should be stable again now.

Not at home now, but I can't access to the forum DoS protection settings

I think the Chinese are still at it. Loading times seem to vary.

Ironically I was just coming to this thread when it hit me again with a human check.

Looks like DDoS is still going on. Site is loading slowly today.

Try to clean cache, cookies. The site loads before I release the mouse button.

It is slow on both my phone and laptop. Could be a regional issue.

Edit: and sometimes it does loads fast like normal.

If both use the same DNS, try to change it to something else. Sometimes NextDNS server in my location acts up as well, it can not be changed, since it is picked up automatically.

Hi @Jack

Was unable to login for few days because no confirmation code was being sent to my email.

Today used 1 of the backup codes and was able to login. Forget I had those... old age

I did check all folders even SPAM etc for any codes. Nothing was received even today.

Update: Still not getting any login in codes sent to my email.

Also I can not access this website without using a VPN now.

@Jack & all mods: BTW thanks for the forum, it gives me much enjoyment as I've given up with most news sites, its a haven of near normal life for me, there is lots of work that obviously goes on in the background & I've never said thanks before

There was a temporary issue with the email system on the new server, which caused some emails not to be sent. Everything has now been fixed, and emails should be working normally again. Sorry for the disruption!

Can confirm on my side that email Login verification is working now.

Thank you! I was able to log back in today successfully. It was quite a long disruption i admit but quite relieved now.

Why do not you use Verification code via app? I consider email verification as a backup. I have 2 separate 2FA apps (Online/Offline).
