: It's not just you. I've been having problems with captha also. One of the manifestations is that captha arrives on the scene, but it doesn't show me the two fuzzy words. So I click on the audio clues, which are totally worthless (or should I say maaaaarrr cwooooorrrrthleeeesssss...), but then I click on the big "T" (for text), and sometimes it then gives me two fuzzy words. If not, I ask for two more (different) fuzzy words, and repeat the cycle over (and over and over and over) again until captha thinks I get it right, either that, captha gets tired of me ... I don't know. Captha acts like an imp. Also, if you get a couple of fuzzy words that you correctly answered previously, it will now fail, which is really, really frustrating. I think captha has a mean wicked sense of humor, and it's just screwing with ya. If you get a couple of fuzzy words that you're responded to (correctly or "incorrectly"), ignore them and ask for two other (new) fuzzy words. Don't waste your time if you KNOW the answer (from a previous attempt). It doesn't matter, the answer(s) will be rejected and most of the time, it presents a new pair of fuzzy words (or maybe not). If I were high on something, this could be construed as entertainment, playing Russian roulette with fuzzy words. Hitting your head with a hammer is much more fun, plus it feels soooooo good when you stop. If I sound too sarcastic, it's because I wasted over an hour today ... probably my fault, I entered a whole mess of stuff, and I didn't want all my editing to go down the toilet without a fight. I won, but a lot of hair got pulled out, and I don't have that much to spare. Perhaps someone should start a Village Pump dialogue? -- [[User:Gerard Schildberger|Gerard Schildberger]] ([[User talk:Gerard Schildberger|talk]]) 22:02, 18 March 2014 (UTC)
