    Have come across this Cloudfare error frequently the last two days (particularly today). I think others have as well. Using Mozilla (FIrefox) browser if it means anything. Not a huge issue as it goes away eventually but it is annoying. :wink:

    I got the message on my Android phone this morning (Chrome). I restarted and it went away.

    Hmm. I just had the "block" pop up when I clicked on the emoticon menu while sending a PM. :thinking_face:

    Restarted my phone again and no trouble.

    I got this message earlier this afternoon on my Android phone. I thought it may have had something to do with posting shitty memes, but a restart seems to have cleared things up. I shall carry on. :poop::sunglasses:

    I got it too this morning - three times. Twice on my phone and once on the desktop. Also got the 'skeleton version' of home page when clicking on the BA logo to get rid of the Blocked message. Nothing this afternoon.

    I think it's probably a Cloudflare issue. No problems at my end though, on Linux, Android or iOS.
