No rhyme or reason, just constant intermittent failure. No fix. Disable everything? Still happens. Try another (clean) browser? No change. Not using a VPN? Doesn’t matter. Fixed by USING a VPN?? WTF. Is it a secret back channel “you’ve used this too much” block? FUCKING JUST SAY SO. Maybe provide a counter. Fuck… either fix this or provide ANY useful information other than “just try again later.”

    The “Anti-Bot verification failed” message has changed, and now ends with “Error: undefined” or “Waited too long for token.”

    The problem will continue randomly until, at some point, verification passes and it will work for a few hours, then this will start again.

    Every attempt to use Image Gen on Perchance turns into an hour of fighting for verification before anything else can be done.

    That is Cloudflare’s bot verification, not the Perchance site. Just accessed the site through Firefox without logging in, no problem. Might be your location. Check Reddit posts a couple days ago about Cloudflare failing updates in certain regions. I’m in USA.

      This happens all the time. Been happening for months. Works like a champ right up until it doesn’t. No changes on this side. Never permanent. Happens randomly throughout the day, every day. Always annoying. I’d bet dollars to doughnuts this IS a config error on the Perchance side… if this was a Cloudfare issue, it would happen almost EVERYWHERE.
