Couldn't bring up the forum for a bit this evening, and when I could get to it, I had to say I was a human when I tried to login.

That's what's happening to me whenever I try to log in on a different computer other than my home work station, and so, too, on my Windows phone! That's why it takes so long time for me to reply to discussions! I can read it at work, but not respond! And I cannot find that 'picture' below it refers to! Any idea what I can do???

If there are too many login attempts for an account, it revokes all cookies for that account. A bit frustrating, but a good policy.

Even at home when I try to log on with some of the other computers,other than the one I use to draw, it allways wants to know if i'm human, and that's even after I ticked the "log-me automatically".

Now, how the heck do you go past that? I've sofar on my mobile or work computer failed miserably to log in. It does ask if you're human, sure, but where the heck do I answer it? And it asks me to type in something from a picture which it claims that I can see below. Like heck I can! And there I am. I can read other people's posts, but not reply till I come home! Darn frustrating, if you ask me. I would, at least, want to be logged in on my cell phone, and I was before the system kicked me out! So, any ideas how I can 'beat the system'?

I doubt anyone's going to randomly DOS this forum.

use proper connection ;)

but I've heard others than just you guys having the similar proplem with asking "who's human?" without the field of text actually showing. I need to experiment with this, but sofar I've always managed to log on with my job, home, sellphone and even computers not on my own use without any proplems.

Am using whatever connection is provided at work. Cannot manipulate that. At home we have wireless, so our mobiles are surfing on the best available network, though usually ours.

And, please look into it, since I cannot detect that field of text anywhere, however many attempts I'm making!
