So i was wondering if any one here was just minding their own business looking up gardening stuff....

when along comes this message asking if you were a robot? if any of you were accused of of suspicious inquiries and then wondering if you are who you say you are? who gives a crap if i were a robot? and nothing i did was suspicious...i just x'd it out.

I love gardening. Right now I have some plants in the nursery stage indoors. Some spinach, arugula, Pumpkins,sunflowers, basil and several varieties of marijuana and tobacco.
I have grown just about every available fruit and vegetable (that will grow in my climate). Sometimes I even grow mycelium.

More and more robots are searching sites for both info and images therefore the sites ads are being ignored.

Those sites are there to at least break even for site maintenance if not for profit. So they are trying something new to guarantee their ads are being seen.

Not saying that they are in the right for doing it. Just that's sadly their reason.

It's occurring on all kinds of websites. Especially smaller websites

I would think maybe it is a new person to the site. Don't let it bother you.

@LILY61 was it a site you had to log into?

LILY61

@rjc36 raised garden beds and it was the place with the lined of pics before you actually go to a site. so i was looking thru the line of raised garden beds and it took over my sreen and asked me to click the I AM NOT A ROBOT box and i just x'd out.

@LILY61 I have no idea when or why that started but it's definitely gotten me to shop on Amazon a lot more LOL

Too fast a google search can do it. When it's found a human being too efficient.

@SethGreene531 i was going really slow.

@LILY61 Hmm 🤷‍♂️. Some sites are silly about it, far too sensitive.

Are you sure that you're not a robot?

LILY61

@Dolimyte i have had surgery...no i didn't have a tune up...i have broken bones...and i eat food...so i am pretty sure that i am not a hum...um, robot

Dolimyte · 41-45, M

@LILY61 probably safe to ignore it then.

Shutterbug · 56-60, M

You were looking for gardening stuff on SW?

LILY61

@Shutterbug no i was asking if any one here had this happen...not if anyone while here had this problem

I suspect we'll be seeing more and more of that type of thing...
