That is a captcha challenge. It is designed to reduce spam.

I recently forgot my password and I had to reset it and I wrote a new message and I had to fill in a CAPTCHA code. I thought it was only for me...

How can you reduce the spam with that CHAPTCHA challenge?

Ok. Thanks for the answer

But there is a small hack I found to bypass that, if u use the app version of chess.com, you don't need to do the captcha, it will go instantly. It worked for me, but I have a feeling that after I post this, some developer will see it and fix it.

Yes

Can u explain why it suddenly disappears? what causes it to disappear for one person, but stay for another. Like ChessPrix2314 said 2 posts above, he is still getting it, but i've noticed im not for almost a day now.

What is the reason for this discrepancy, and what causes it? how can u get rid of it urself, if u do have any control?
