Scary Recaptcha

Happy Holidays to all the great people at Cloudflare!

First, thank you for providing remarkably great services on your free tier. I honestly cannot fathom how this works for you as a business model, but I sincerely very greatly appreciate all that you do.

Please consider revising the giant super-scary orange triangle warning thingy that appears when I use a firewall rule recaptcha. Example … https://taggedpdf.com/contact-kenny/

My visitors report that rather than clicking through to my site, they run screaming from their keyboards and hide traumatized under their beds for days. I am of course exaggerating just a bit, but it is unduly scary and off-putting. Please consider making it friendlier-looking.

Again, thank you for all that you do. Please stay awesome.

Best, Kenny

Recategorise this under “product request” and you shall have my vote :smile:

For now I believe you can customize that page on the Pro+ plans

But it would be nice for a different Captcha page to show up if it was triggered via a Firewall rule, since “you should run an anti-virus scan on your device” doesn’t really apply if the site owner is the one putting up the captcha page.

:joy:

Maybe it’s time for Cloudflare to make those pages look nicer. The good news is it’s less scary on mobile.
