I've been having trouble convincing the computer that I'm human so that I can post comments. Sometimes it takes me three tries before I guess what HPA's computer thinks those malformed characters are supposed to be.
Hi Lincoln,
this is my "simple" user account, which I use when I want to test something.
I do not understand why you need to enter the chapta letter when you post a comment.
If you are logged in as lincoln, you should have no problem posting as is

which I just did, simply by typing the text and hitting "post"...
Anybody else has this problem?
Or am I not understanding properly?
First time hearing this. Any chance you are using VPN?
I think it was when signing in,so that I could post comments. However, I can't get the captcha to come up when signing in now. No VPN that I know of.
If I am not mistaken, the captcha appears only when you sign up / register for the very first time.
It might also appear when doing a search. I need to check
When you login to your existing account you only need username and password.
And if you choose "forever" you should not need even those next time you visit, they are saved in your device...
Just tried the search box. Doen't require anything.
Just faced and failed the Turing test again. Attaching screen shot, if I can. Edited to keep it below the absurd file size limit, which it said was something like 256k, if memory serves.
Hi lincoln,
well, this was certainly helpful. It cleared a missunderstanding, even though a solution may not be easy to be found yet.
What you did not write in your initial message and what I failed to understand is that you were refering to posting comments in the plans gallery and not in the forum...
These are two different platforms and indeed the plans gallery requires a captcha for posting a comment there. Posting comments there is rather rare, that is probably why no one else replied here or they also did not understand you were talking about the plans gallery.
Forgive me but all this time I was thinking you were talking about the forum.
Looking into the settings of the plans gallery software I do not see an easy one to adjust the captcha difficulty level, like the one that is in the forum.
I agree, it is indeed difficult to get it right. Have no immediate solution to offer for now. Maybe post in the forum?
George
Thanks.
