"Please complete the verification to continue" for a comment. What verification?!?

I commented once on a game I've been playing, then ran into some stuff I thought the creator should know and can't post any new comments or replies. I keep getting the same infuriating error: "Please check the information you provided" and then "Please complete the verification to continue".

There is nothing in my email asking for a new verification, and I'm a new user so I don't know if there's something in my settings I should be checking. To my knowledge I've received no message indicating there's a restriction or ban on my account. Any idea why this is happening? It's not the end of the world but I'd like to be able to communicate with the people who make games on here. >:[


ETA: I've tried shortening my comment, the original had images so I tried removing one of them, and I tried both replying and posting as a new comment. No dice.

I believe we found and fixed the bug that was causing this issue. It appears to be have affecting only people who were making nested comment replies where their account session required a captcha. Please try again and tell us if you are still seeing the issue.

It took me a few days to even be able to post a fucking comment with a diagram I spent a few hours making. My final message isn't what I wanted to say I just wasn't expecting it to go through. Now when I try to edit it I'm getting that bullshit too

It's a cloudflare/google captcha verification box that's suppose to appear to allow you to verify to post. Note that uhhhhh it will probably not appear for some reason. I saw it once and was able to verify but it like rarely appears from my tests.

The Cloudflare screen appears regularly for me. It changed how I move around the site and where I interact, because I’m tired of the interference going from one page to another, whether or not I’m already signed in. The checkbox usually pops up after several seconds each time, but sometimes it only refreshes and refreshes and… I give up.

It's something broken on their end. I'm getting this error when using the web inspector.

Parts of Cloudflare went down again yesterday. That happens almost daily with various parts of the service.

Which browser and device are you using, and does a verification checkbox appear anywhere near the comment form? Does this happen on every game page you try, or only one?

PC and I tried multiple browsers. Brave, Edge and Firefox.

I did see the verification check box once when I initially posted but it never loaded after.

But today it is working fine, I don't need to verify. Yesterday I was receiving the same errors in console about cloudflare site key.

Just kidding it broke immediately after I posted that. Same error
