Title: captcha [fixed]
Post by: teliot on April 03, 2012, 08:08:03 PM
the verification captcha letters are horrid on this site. atleast the letters dont change much while the background does, but sometimes that dosent help either. i went through 3 sets of letters just on registration.

when i try to search or register or login on my windows computer to the forums i get an error page. anti micro$hit much?

Error 403

The 403 comes from bad behavior mod... additionally he tends to be rude when the registration doesn't work for multiple times. Feel free to PM me your IP address and I can check better what went wrong. Btw. I'm agreeing that the captcha is sometimes unreadable, but it's a builtin SMF feature - I can only turn it off completely or make it totally bot-friendly. *shrugs*
