_Wilson_™ 3,487 Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) i just signed out, and back in no issues here .... you might check here... sounds like you might have tried signing in too many times with the wrong Email or password, the lockout for that mistake is only nine minutes... but only after three wrong attempts ... not 4 plus.

Fishfiles 8,006 Posted May 25, 2020 I don't ever need to log in , I guess cause I don't log out ---but lately it ask me if I am human and I have to pick pics with bicycles in them to post Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Wilson_™ 3,487 Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) i agree... i hardly ever sign out ... but i have seen people create a new email account / handle ... and join forums / chats on a defrent devise.. why anyone would stoop to that is beyond me... it's just plain crooked IMO .. we used to be able to see ip addresses ... on msn... but i wouldn't waist my time looking, now i just look the typing / thoughts posted, that's a dead give away.... lol! this is one reason i really like the members location map, AND pics / videos ---- PROOF member numbers don't mean a thing unless there active..

LedFTed 442 Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) i'm on the map, an have been for some time. any picture's i could have took would have showed i had to sign in again. no point in that. still using the same same machine as i have been for the past few years. my password is the same, and my email. it just happened, and i reported it. its not doing it at this moment, IDK why it did, just that it did. i got my password stored on Firefox, so i aint changed nothing. dont have to.

_Wilson_™ 3,487 Posted May 25, 2020 (edited) fish, i took a screen shot, a while back, i must have deleted it.... and haven't located anything in the forums about this issue, but this thread is about signing in.. so... I'll do another thread for the robot issue ... i kind of figure it's a settings in the forum... maybe we can get some more imput ?

retro 2,601 Posted May 26, 2020 I've seen the "are you a human" puzzles several times too. It seems the more stuff I add to a post the more likely it is that I'll be tested. Its an annoyance for sure! I know where it comes from and I know how to disable it... but, if I disable it then we won't have any spying corps bot protections anymore. I will see if I can fine tune on it over time.... a trial & error sort of thing. If I can't make it behave we'll have to live with it though. Because once its disabled we will be swatting parasites out of the air constantly and I'm not going there.... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LedFTed 442 Posted May 27, 2020 (edited) i figured out the problem i was having, it just took a while for me.. the last time i bought memory was a while back, probable about 2009 an it was off of e-bay. between my 2002 computer, an the 2 [1xGB] my computer is conking out. lucky, i got that covered. it might be a week after i get my case this saterday or not depending, least i can quit asking what i already know in my sub-conscious. as far as mistyping, i'm working on that, seems my fingers type different than what i'm thinking, plus, i cant spell worth a lick. my spell check dont work, an i havent got the program working that i need, integrated yet ''the sage'', linux version. [for misspells in windows, the sage has helped me] and i misspell a lot. perhaps ya noticed. it cant tell "here from hear" in sentence structure, but it does help. you still have to do punctuation, an know the difference, between here an hear, or there an their. forgot what i was writing for the moment so i will quit. i dont feel like reading what i wrote. ;~} you know your thinking the same. hahaha Edited May 27, 2020 by LedFTed 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
