Title: Too many hoops!
Post by: getagrip on April 21, 2015, 09: PM
So - we have to sign in using our username and password, but before we can post a message or reply we have to solve a Capcha and answer three questions. It seems a little over the top. Is there a reason for this? I probably wouldn't even mention this (the questions are easy enough :) but since contracting macular degeneration I'm finding Capchas infuriatingly difficult. This might discourage others who would like to participate in the forum, and I myself have limited time left to be able to cope with these visual obstacle courses.

Here I go again...

The capchas disappear after you have made 3 posts. They are there initially to thwart computer robots which otherwise would flood the forum with fake registrations that post adverts.
