Title: Wrong Captcha
Post by: Carbonate on May 21, 2013, 03:08 pm
I was just wondering if anyone else if having this problem? Whilst I have been using SR relatively frequently, this is my first post on the forums, as for quite some time I was unable to register a forum account.

However, now that I have successfully (finally) registered an account here, I am still stuggling to reply to posts (and create this one). So I was just wondering if this is a common issue, and if there is anything that can be done to mitigate it? I understand that it may be a caching issue? As the Tor service is quite slow, whilst the captcha has a short time limit. Any other ideas?

Thanks

it's very infrequent to have a prob with a captcha. You can either reload the page, or request a new image. Also, they are not case sensitive and far as I can tell, never contain numerics.

Hi Carbonate,

You can usually resolve this issue by going to 'TorBrowser' -> Options -> Options -> Content -> Enable JavaScript (uncheck this box).

Had to create a new account, no idea why, however all is working well now. Much appreciated Libertas!
