Issue: Issues with signature editing

When I attempt to edit my signature, I get this white screen that asks for one of those stupid captchas. It's generated by Cloudflare (which BTW needs to die a slow and painful death). The changes still go through when I solve their lame puzzle, but it's still annoying to do it every single time I want to preview my signature.

Is anyone else having this issue, or is this just my computer being a pain?

I thought this was resolved?
This problems has happened 2 times in the past (the previous was pointed by me so I know what I'm talking about). Rukario was doing something and it disappeared...
You should check the old thread.

But what I can say, it's unfortunately very common.

This is a known problem around and apparently when using high volumes of CSS code it triggers something at the Cloudflare servers. Just enter the captcha and you should be good to go, even though I am aware it's a nuisance.

You may want to test your signature on another forum/BBCode accepting area instead. It's just a precaution measure for malicious coding, as far as I'm concerned. Happens all the time for me since I decorate my signature usually with CSS.

sorry about that but better safer than hax'd and broken. Its a minor annoyance that's worth the outcome.. for now.

also note: the css we allow is not standard in a forum for the most part (its a custom feature that we offer to you) and CloudFlare doesn't 'expect' it so triggers one or more of its protection triggers.

Oh, I never thought of this but that makes sense. Now I shall endure those captcha things with less anger.
