It has been happening to me for several days now that when I try to access the BRM page, it first takes me to a Cloud fare page, to verify that I am human. Then it redirects me to the BRM site. This is normal? Is it happening to everyone or is it just me? I'm asking just in case I have touched something in my configuration and I haven't realized it. Regards

It only happens when you try to access the login page, and it's part of our security measures to ensure that nobody is trying to access accounts that they should not have access to.
We are evaluating it and we may dial it down a bit, maybe for some users/countries, remove it, or keep it as is.
The process should be automatic and only take 1 or 2 seconds in most cases. If you are asked to perform any "I'm not a robot"-task, it may be because Cloudflare is unsure about you.

Thank you very much for your response Fat Tony. Actually it's like you say, it only takes 1 or 2 seconds, but I was just wondering if it was my issue or if it was general. Regarding the "im not a robot" thing, I think it happened to me once when I accessed the site a few days ago from a computer that I don't normally use. Maybe it was that. Thank you

I thought that this cloud fare was from me because i installed a program... Now i see it's from here. It doesn't matter too much because it's not a big problem with him.

I wanted to create a thread for this problem , now I saw this thread , so it's not only me having this problem
It is problematic , everyone I want to visit BRM to have to pass this Cloud Fare page test , to see if I am a bot .
It is very annoying , without any doubt , every time . I mean if I had to do it once , I could understand it , maybe ...... but every time ???
On mobile it is far worse than pc , I think it takes more time . On mobile I have to stay at the same page waiting for the site to be loaded after I pass the test , whereas at pc it is faster plus it doesn't matter so much , as I can do other things while waiting ,maybe see other pages
But on mobile it is very annoying . Wait 5-10 sec just to visit the calendar and play the game . It is not only 2 or 3 sec
I do not get it why I should pass this test on mobile every time . I do not erase cookies , in the past I was staying connected to BRM , now every time I have to pass this test or even log in again , even during the same day . .
You have to fix this . It is annoying . I visit also another site with the same protection measure , the cloud fare whatever it is called But on mobile I do not have to pass the test again and again ,as long as I am still connected/logged in to the site . On pc only I have to do this event time cause on pc cookies and log in data is being erased every time I close the chrome app
If sb logs in to BRM via his mobile once , he should pass only once the test (first time he logs in ) ,then he should stay connected and not pass this test again (as long as he remains logged in / doesn't log off ) Mobile log in is secure measure , maybe if you want to be sure , BRM members could add their mobile number on their profile page , so if sb logged in to BRM via his mobile , it should be considered automatically safe and secured .
I logg in from my mobile to BRM , same mobile number , why should I pass this test every time for security reasons ?? It doesn't make any sense ....Very annoying , indeed .

It is boring man . It's meaningless this to happen as long as you are logged in , and from your own same number mobile every day (which is a secure connection ) !!!!
It doesn't happend only once , but most times daily It is not only 2 or 3 secs , it is more , at least for me
I have a very fast mobile Redmi 6 . Everything runs very fast , internet pages are loaded automatically , then when I visit BRM I have to wait for this test .. it is a R procedure .....Then it feels like when I have no internet signal or connection at all and I wait for the page to load , it is similarly annoying
And the worse is that you have to check many times the :'i am not a bot '' check box . Lol . That's worse than waiting omg......
Most of the times I just come to the BRM calendar page to click the door . I just click and leave until the next time I ll come again for the next door . So to have to wait 5 or 10 sec or check boxes and whatever else just for this calendar door clicking .... yeah .... then it is very boring .
If it is a new BRM member or an existing member that visits very rarely BRM , he should not have any problem with this security measure , it is not a problem for him , no trouble at all , maybe he should give credit to BRM for this extra security measure
BUT ...This is a problem for anyone that visits BRM many times a day , especially the times that he visits BRM just to do sth very simple , play a mob game only

Also here I am experiencing the same problems here. Sometimes it asks me about how human am I, sometimes it doesn't asking me about how much human am I. I am experiencing it on every reload of the page i do, I hope you fix this issue soon.
