Bryan Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I've had to go through 4 sets of controls to access the forum, picking traffic lights (2), chimneys and pedestrian crossings. Is there a problem with trolls on the site, requiring extra vigilance, or have I just missed some aspect of each of the controls? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Preston Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I had to identify images with buses in them, so at least Alamy give us variety in what we have to look for (meant as sarcastic humour). First time had to do this though for quite some months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill Brooks Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 I wish they would let any robot on the forum. I just loved those posts about how to make money by growing cabbages in my garage, and selling them over the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Mitchell Posted December 21, 2018 Share Posted December 21, 2018 No hoops at all for me today for some reason, but yesterday was like jumping hurdles -- storefronts, bicycles, crosswalks, every trick in the bag. BTW, does anyone else think that Bill might actually be a robot? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisken Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Bit confused by the hoop jumping you are mentioning. I know what is being referred to, as I have done it myself, mainly, when forgetting to tick the 'automatic log'-in box on the sign in page. Do those of you having to sign in not have this option on your systems? I'm using Firefox on a Windows OS. Ah, brain cell just sputtered, Firefox. has a, 'save password for this site?', option I'm using, which prefills the required fields and lets me in on tapping the sign-in button.

Krisken Safari on my Mac's will enter my user name and login, sometimes without issues. Other times I have to identify multiple traffic lights, buses, stairs etc. Often the definition of the images is very poor, so you can't tell if the blurred distance contains what you should be identifying. Perhaps that's why you have to jump repeatedly through so many hoops. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CAROL SAUNDERS Posted December 22, 2018 Share Posted December 22, 2018 Just managed to get it without jumping through hoops ! Safari on a Mac - think at least they would make the images festive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paulette I've only had "mountains or hills" once or twice. As I remember, it was brutal. The odd thing is how inconsistent the security system is. Today I was again let through the forum door with no robot check at all. On other days, I get caught in a viscous circle of reappearing storefronts, traffic lights, buses, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
