Personally, my experience is that every time I login using my web browser, I enter my username and password and press login. It then empties the password field and forces me to retype it as well as pass the captcha. Retyping the password and passing the captcha lets me in. It's the same every time, without fail.

No captcha is presented on the initial login request.

I could accept it asking me to pass the captcha, or retype my password if it was incorrect, but re-entering my password when it was correct is infuriating (first world problem for sure)

This has only started happening in the past 1-2 months

5 days later

go into your browser settings, extensions, and remove the downloader extension that's supposed to "optimize" download speeds? anyway. I removed it, no more captcha

update: yeah that worked for about an hour, then captcha came back and it's quite pissing me off.. wouldnt be so bad if it gave me an option to pick something from an assorted of thumb. but when it give you one large picture and you have to select something, never ever works. all refresh and skips keep sending back to same style of captcha and can never get logged back in. bs.. it better allow me to log back in in time to stop auto reencurring payment if i decide i want to cancel

FWIW I don't get captcha requests and rarely have to re-enter my password. I use IDM for downloads, with no VPN. SLR is actually the least bothersome site of any VR porn studio for me, keeping me logged in like Amazon does. Wankz is also good in this regard. The worst by far is NAVR.

    vrpicasso agree 100%, dunno what these people are doing wrong

    @doublevr might be good if you elaborate why these people are getting captchas so they can avoid it

      adinihsan no idea.

      The captcha was introduced to prevent automated tools like scrapers and downloaders.

      That's why we need to know every case of false positive? to make sense on if.

      I can't download my last 3 videos, your pop up to indicate that you have 3 videos left interacts badly with the captcha java script and you cannot download the last videos.

        Tweeticoats Hey, I passed this to the devs to check!

        UPDATE: The devs were unable to reproduce the error you're facing, so is there any chance that you can provide us with a screen recording or a debug mode showing any sort of ERROR code that will help us narrow our search?

          I currently have 22 downloads left. I'm already logged in but I keep getting Captcha's when I go to download videos. The large picture Captcha's never work. The thumbnail ones only work about half the time. I literally just when through trying to pass the Captcha more than five times and finally gave up trying to download the video. I don't know why I'm being forced to pass a Captcha after logging in to SLR. FYI, I'm using Firefox, latest version with no extensions.

          Nothing I could spot that is useful in the logs. The only error is a 404 on the google tracking pixel.
          I managed to get 1 download after trying and trying again but the other downloads have not worked.
          I have a screen recording of firefox going to the download page with 2 downloads remaining, the warning pop up appears and it redirecting to the "Something went wrong" page. Let me know where to send the capture.

            Tweeticoats Is there any chance that you can send this over via email after you create a support request following this link?

            I'm back in the forum because I've been hitting captchas again all morning, and I'm hoping I can find a solution. I've posted here in jan 2023 and emailed support before about this and didn't get any satisfactory resolution. I'm back in the forum because I'm pretty fed up with this.

            I'm in the same boat as the OP and others, I am constantly hitting the captcha system, and it NEVER works. I have to delete all cookies and then login again. Sometimes the captcha triggers again, sometimes it works for a while. This is on win 10, with both Firefox and Chrome. Why does it happens here, and not on any of the other sites I use regularly? I have never had a problem with Wankz, VRP, BaDoink, etc. I understand the need for captcha's, but in this case it's obviously broken for some percentage of your users. How many hit it and never report it and just go away and stop their subscription?

            Even when I delete cookies, it doesn't guarantee that it'll work. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. And once it start asking, it never completes. I've tried up to 10+ captchas, one after another, until I get tired. It never lets me in without deleting cookies.

            If this is supposed to stop bots, I don't think it's going to slow them down much, because you can just generate new cookies in an automated way and captcha solving due to AI and 3rd world countries is not as useful as it used to be. In addition you're pissing off your paying customers. Using Google reCaptcha in this day and age is just terrible.

            I'm not running anything automated, however I use Internet Download Manager (IDM) because I'm queuing up videos, but only download one or two at a time. Once I get the url for a download, it seems to go fine. Is this what is triggering the captcha? If so that sucks. I'm not using incognito, a vpn or anything else besides ublock origin and IDM. I'm on a residential cable modem (xfinity/comcast).

            When I originally signed up, I was regularly hitting the download limits, and that's fine, you have limited bandwidth and you're free to throttle that at some reasonable level. But I'm only queuing up two or three videos at a time these days, but I'm still hitting the captcha! My workflow is to open a promising video in a new tab, and repeat until I'm done choosing. Then I'll pop over to the new tabs and either hit the download link (which queues it up in IDM), or close the tab.

            Is this what's triggering it? Or does it have to do with my use of uBlock origin? I block Google Analytics (GA) because google is fucking evil now. block GA should not be something that should trigger the bot detection. uBlock origin is for privacy and security reasons. IDM? No other site I use has a problem with IDM.

            This is incredibly frustrating, especially because it's only this site (for me). While I'm a paying member of the site, and I'm happy to support the companies that provide goods or services that I want, but in my experience, if it's too difficult to get it legitimately, most people will just go with pirating, since it's easier. Ask the film and record industry. Have you heard of the *arr stack?

            I'm a webdev, if you want to get me in touch with your backend guys, I'm happy to have a conversation. Maybe use cloudflare instead of google for the bot detection? Google has long lost their technical leadership and are actively enshitifying everything they touch.

            Thanks.
