Hello,

I've just returned here after some years and found out I need capthas here and there on the forum. Not for a new topic upto now  8)

Can onyone of you actually read these on a 27" monitor ? I can't complain about the PQ of my LG 27" monitor at all.

Never did I have to download the 8kbit sampled speach of any captcha before (done on a C64 - which is cool BTW) and play it to solve the Captcha...

Thanks for looking into it, Arno

Not sure I follow, Captcha only on registration. It can be awkward to read, however stops stupid spam bots, etc etc.

On my 32" Monitor, I cant read anything. However for graphics and gaming, its pin sharp. Spose thats what I get for buying a cheap'ish OLED.

@FOLLETT

I've gotten the captcha each time I've used "search" while not logged in.

Perhaps that is what the poster is experiencing or similar.

Ah, thats delibrate. Its not uncommon, I think EAB do also if not logged in.

I get the captcha with every PM.

I was trying to answer a PM this morning. Another unreadable captcha (see attached .gif)

Maybe amiga.org is responsive enough to be read using Aweb on a Commodore 1084S  :P

I actually replied to the man via Amibay. No need to opt for pronouncing captchas as I was blind.

Reduced intensity of Captcha, is that better.

Not sure why your being asked for it when sending PM. There is no option for this.

I find it strange, that user complains about capcha, now all of a sudden amiga.org is being spammed.
I have added more questions to registration and adjusted captcha again.
