snag in the registration process

Unread post by kampanaryo_spy »

hi bon!

since i've been hearing a lot of complaints from blogger wannabes of how difficult it is to register in the forum (as compared to the chatter box in the mainpage), i decided to try it myself.

i filled out the required fields and then when i reached the portion where i must "copy" the confirmation codes, the box can only accommodate TWO LETTERS. even if i tried hard to type the rest of the codes, the keyboard was simply stuck. and so i continued filling out the rest of the required fields and hit SUBMIT. and then i was told: THE CONFIRMATION CODE YOU ENTERED WAS INCORRECT!

i went back to filling the required fields and typing the confirmation codes that now had changed. two letters da gihapon! i then hit SUBMIT and the same comment appeared: THE CONFIRMATION CODE YOU ENTERED WAS INCORRECT!

hala agaw bon reparaha naay ini para muhamok kita nganhi. salamatirs.

Ok Mel. Noted.

Our anti-spammer system is very strict with visual code confirmation due to raging forum related viruses, which are circulating the cyberspace.
The problem might be attributable to the added graphic noise to the visual confirmation that makes the text harder to read by humans. I also suspect that other problem could be tha visual code's case-sensitivity:
Example: 'asdfghkj' will not match with 'ASDFGHKJ'.

To fix the problem, I might lower down the security level or disabled the visual code confirmation but the risk of our forum website's vulnerability to virus & online porno/violence spammers will be imminent.

bon,

no probs in reading the visual confirmation and the fact that it's case sensitive, an problema kay pag type lagi nan visual confirmation that consists of 4 or more characters, duha day ma type ko kay amo da san mag automatic shut off/lock an space provided for visual confirmation. pero basin isab ako da, amo? hahaha reminds me of the classic melanie marquez line: if others can't why, why can't i?

ikaw sa lamang an punto total ikaw say hibawo what's best for the site.

thanks again.
:)
