PMs Not Sending

For the past few days I haven't been able to send any PMs, replies or otherwise. When I try to send one, it redirects me to a Cloudflare page with a CAPTCHA, which then redirects to Basil without actually sending my message. Just curious if anybody else has been having this issue? I sent a report but haven't received any reply yet.

@Deciduous My guess is the CloudFlare system responds differently to different threat levels.
That is, if it thinks the site is being attacked for whatever reason, it'll ramp up its security to include things like the Captcha authentication on sending PMs, then when it senses the threat level has gone down, it reduces the security again.
Sometimes posting in the forums is affected like that, but usually it's normal.

I don't have any direct knowledge about how it works for sure, but that's my guess.

Yeah I...have no idea what was actually going on. I replied to you fine, was able to reply to another message only when i deleted everything except my text, but also had issues sending just a fresh PM to somebody yesterday.

Seems like I should be fine/had no real problem tho.
