pm | | Confirmation Code (2nd Jan 08 at 1:30am UTC) | | | For some reason it isn't working now. Has anyone had trouble with it? I am trying to join my own forum to test something and I've failed it 10 times. Its all capitals right? | |

pmYesh im sneaky! | | Re: Confirmation Code (2nd Jan 08 at 1:33am UTC) | | | Yes its true, thier is abit of a problem with that, i thought it was just me. I think its only for FireFox tho. | |
Now obsession rules my mind
This commotion makes me blind
Searching out who ever runs
Or has stolen away my life
But i've already said
Don't ever back down
Don't ever turn around
My end has come
So now I come for you.... |

If it isn't all caps, Id make it more distinct. I have no way to tell which are caps or not. And a complaint xD I don't know how this works, if you made it or its a company but if you made them then,
I don't know what the 2nd letter is. I think its an L but one could think its a 4.

pmvForum | | Re: Confirmation Code (2nd Jan 08 at 1:35am UTC) | | Personally I think a new system should be used..
like a simple sum:
2 + 2 = ?
1 + 4 = ?
they answer the question and hey presto they're not a bot! 
Ok 8 attempts and none of them were right... I think that's a bug!  (on that forum anyway!) | |

If bots have the capability to read letters that are each spaced differently, have lines through them, are tilted, and are a tad blurred, do you think they wouldn't be able to grab two numbers out of the source code and read them? | |

It would most definitely confuzzle them! 
And so long as they weren't given an id like: 'confirm_sum' | |

Bots aren't as simple as you think Wrighty; if they were we wouldn't need confirmation codes that are distorted, misaligned, tilted, and blurred. | |

Dial-up users won't like that at all; and what if someone is on a public computer with no speakers? Some of my friends only have internet access at the public library, or at school. | |
