Error 503 is far worse, it appeared again this morning. Why should a site we pay for have such errors bugs me. These errors never get solved.

This is only indirectly Proz doing it. Mar 6

The blame is on Cloudflare being too paranoid - barking at guests believing they are intruders.

I guess that Proz felt the need for their services, maybe too many AIs trying to lift the whole site and clogging the available bandwidth?

Probabily one of the causes of ProZ's extreme slowness Mar 16

I've seen a huge increase in sites with the Cloudflare watchdog, sometimes asking verification for each and every page you visit (what are cookies for??). Also here on ProZ it pops up even when just refreshing a page. Who has implemented the tool that way??

Is CloudFlare also blocking other functions? Mar 19

I have trouble with the layout.
My picture, eg, appears very big in the right upper corner, instead of in the usual smaller format.
The pull down menu's appear listed at the left side, instead as hidden by the pull down function.
And if a message in the forums is too long, so that it has a "See more" button, clicking on the button doesn't work.

Cloudflare Purge add-on Mar 20

After losing too much time over the last days with this Cloudflare issue, I decided to try to install this add-on: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/cf-purge-plugin/?utm_source=addons.mozilla.org&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=search

It worked, and I have regained access to ProZ!
