Yes, most of my members used to see the page and used to experience an issue with the captcha so I removed it, as my target market was mostly kids and teenagers (they found it a nuisance as they didn't "get" the captcha and also as studies indicate have really low attention spans). even though I can white list their IP but random guests would be an issue as I didn't want to lose any potential members. I'm aware it can speed up things many times fold and it also makes the site safer. No doubt the advantages of having Cloudflare > than not having Cloudflare.
