Are you a Bot?

thetimekeeperslair — Tue, 28 Apr 2026 12:12:25 GMT

tried to sign out yesterday and I got a notice which asked if I was a 'Bot.' reason given was I seemed to be able to zip through the listing (watch's and parts, saved items) at great speed! Tried to sign out twice and got the same message?

Managed to sign out in the end but have no Idea what the above is about.

Your thoughts most welcome.

Many are receiving this strange message, you are not alone !

There's been a major server issue yesterday, fixed for some but others like yourself, as still receiving that message and unable to access all / some parts of their account.

It is an intermittent fault, so worth trying a little later today or tomorrow.

I get the same message every time I sign out of this forum - but not when I sign out of Ebay.

It doesn't have any effect - I can still sign back in - it's just one of those things!

I had to verify I was human for months when signing out, so this is just another weird glitch.
