It's the way it is. So live with it. :yep:

Never realized how annoying these things were until earlier today. Either I'm getting old, or they are making these things too hard to read.

Why are they making them so hard to read? :hmph:

I have been living with it for years on other websites. I was hoping I wouldn't have to live with it on Subsim.

Normally when the captcha's get too annoying I simply stop visiting the site altogether and never look back.

But as we all know that's not an option here, I'm afraid the withdrawal would be fatal :DL

Nothing against it in principal. Just that the damn big and/or small letters and numbers are almost every time impossible to be correctly identified in full. I am unable to use the search since the feature is there. The search function is effectively non-functional for me now. I know the system from other sites, it can work. But this is a very bad implementation, making the function useless.

Yeah, Totally agree with the OP. The problem is that although I have 20/20 eyesight the verification letters are very often impossible to identify. Can they be made a little clearer possibly? atm it's worse than grafitti...

Let get this straight. You guys have to do this everytime you log in ?

Why do you keep getting older? :D

I agree, though, the captcha images that come up here are REALLY hard to read. Way too much stuff going on with extraneous lines and blobs and colors and letters and numbers just blending into the general mishmash, sometimes it's almost impossible even to find all the characters, much less ID them correctly.

Am I dreaming or is the captcha for the Advanced Search is now gone?
