This was previously working a treat, but today on logging in I immediately got a Cloudflare page and captcha that took about 5 attempts then didn't allow me though. Managed on the second time, however.

It doesn't bypass the Cloudflare captcha, only the forum's own captcha. Whether you get a CF captcha depends on whether / how much the forum is currently being attacked and CF's idea of your IP's reputation.

There are some possible ways that I could allow bypassing the CF captcha, but they're all troublesome in various ways. Maybe I'll look into it if there are a lot of complaints about CF's captcha.

I've only run into the error that one time so far so it's probably fine.

update - Just happened again, but only took me three goes at the captcha so not really an issue.

When i used to use it, generally refreshing one's identity did the trick if you can't get through on the first few attempts and you're using tor.

But you still had to go through the tedious process of filling out the captcha ten times just to find out you've been blocked. The bypass link is probably enough for now and I'm thankful for it.

I usually try limiting it to three and then just using the shortcut for a new circuit after that...
seemed to work well for me.
