showler Posted January 12, 2024 Share Posted January 12, 2024 It's hilarious that they hate me so much they won't even look at my posts and get the answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would cycle several times through the 'challenge' and then I'd then be 'allowed' on for a bit and then it would repeat. Finally, it wouldn't allow me to look at the forum here or post - I'd get a refusal of service because I'd used up my 'allowance' but I could add images etc on the other end of the site. And I downloaded OK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I downloaded OK. Expand Yea, if I went to another tab and maybe watched a YouTube video or something, then came back to the Nexus Tab, and clicked on something like a Mod, or tried to select a game from my custom list of games, or sometimes just switching back to the Nexus tab from another tab, it would dump me to the "Checking for Secure Connection" with the captcha. Thankfully I didn't have to go through several captchas though, it would just be that one checkbox captcha thing. I get enough of Captchas just trying to log into the Epic Game store or "Purchasing" a free game on Epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndalayBay Posted January 13, 2024 Share Posted January 13, 2024 I read the announcement as meaning that some regions wouldn’t be able to access Nexus at all, not that you would be logged in, reading posts and then suddenly be told you’ve exceeded something or other and be blocked. I read two posts! It sounds like it’s all related. Things do seem to be better now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree over captcha. On 1/13/2024 at 1:52 AM, AndalayBay said: Things do seem to be better now. Expand So far; so good as they say in Oblivion...

I've seen this orange one. In fact, I wondered if it was screen adjustment or visual perception - people don't always see the same thing... Anyway, thanks for the explanation Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndalayBay Posted January 13, 2024 Share Posted January 13, 2024 We had a team member who's colour blind. He wound up using Camoran's Paradise vegetation everywhere because he couldn't tell the difference! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
