Just wanted to point out how damn awful the word verification was on this forum. Took me 9 times to read that awful thing. Please consider changing it before the only thing that can read it is a computer. :)

If you mean the spell checker capability - this forum does not have it at all :) So, only the spell checks of your browser work when you enter a post.

@vmaslov, I think he means the captcha for registration.

@ruffstuff, you only need to do this once for registration. After you're registered as a forums user, you only need your log-in and password to access it.

Oh, you must be right. I totally missed that thing when trying to figure out the meaning of the question. A lack of practice in thinking in English :)

@ruffstuff We absolutely need this wild captcha to prevent the spam flow. Without it, the hundred spam posts needed moderation every week may easily become a thousand or even large number (don't want to check the exact value by disabling the captcha :).

I get that you need it, I just wanted to point out that it was extremely hard to read. After many years thinking of UI design, i tend to just tell people my experiences as they happen. I wasn't trying to just complain, but offer thoughts on the raw experience.

Yes, I know exactly how you feel. Lately it seems like whenever I'm presented with a captcha 'quiz' I need to hit the reset button multiple times before I see one that I can actually read. It gets annoying but unfortunately it's become necessarily common on the web, especially for user forums. (I'm speaking in general of course, not just iPi Soft's forums.)

I hope someone comes up with a better system before it really gets out of hand.

Finally... we've got a new human-friendly captcha. Hope that new users will be less distracted.
