So the captcha the Codemonkey picked is very difficult to use.
We are looking for a simpler captcha system. I have asked Codemonkey
to disable the Captcha today. It will be coming back when we have found
the easier system to use.
It does not disable a person from reading, the purpose is to insure humans
are posting, and not gigantic botnets. Which have become a big problem.
Currently the beta is available at
http://ronin.bbspink.com If you are using a dedicated browser, and plan to post in the future.
Please take a moment to read how to use Ronin. It is backwards compatible
and persons that have a ● account can use it as well.
I read some other ideas people have, like using p2. Well, p2 does not
have any benefit for Pink Channel. Only the generous and wonderful people
and companies that advertise on Pink Channel provide any income that is earned.
If you are using a dedicated browser you miss out on the ability to see
some of our fine advertisers. I worry some about depopulation with this
system, however it is not so aweful, and a simple work around is available.
The benefit of reducing botnets, which have devestated some of our most interesting
and important discussion threads, is enough reason to welcome a simple to
use Captcha system.
