Cloud Flare overly aggressive in what it blocks?
#1
I keep running across wiki pages that cannot be edited/saved because they contain text strings that match a Cloud Flare block pattern. Some make sense, like a line for MySQL configuring, but others don't make any sense to me at all. For example:

Code:
" or "1080" in t

Where "1080" can be anything. Which was used in a page like this: ...files with "720" or "1080" in their names are played with...

Interestingly enough, I am able to post this to the forum, but only after Cloud Flare asks me to solve a captcha. This option does not show up when editing the wiki, though.

I'm sure there's some situation where it makes perfect sense to block that pattern, because it was used in some attack along with some command or code, but I'm hoping there is a way to just relax that part of Cloud Flare. Maybe just for the wiki? Otherwise, wiki users are just going to keep making the assumption that they themselves have gotten blocked, and most don't ask me about it. There are countless wiki pages that probably have such matches.
