The security code thing while trying to do a search. For some reason I could not get it right 11 times...

I guess looking from an Admin POV you don't want spammers on the site..but from a spammers POV...why would you want ot use a bot to do searches?

Anyway, just wanted to vent....

I don't have that at all...

Have you been planning in destroying the forum again?





Nah kidding. I really don't see what you are seeing at all. Maybe contact staff and ask what gives? Or it might be your ISP, perhaps?

I only see the security code when I'm not logged in... otherwise, I can search with no problem...

Is there anyway this could be happening to you? Not being logged in when you are searching?

If anything though... I can at least verify I have seen this security code... :)


Edit: Ok looks like that was it!

I know that certain info is available to logged in users only and that suits me fine.

For example, a visitor cannot look up member profiles and such. Visitors can't see the Buy/Sell/Trade sub-forums either.

ROTFL

It's all part of getting the hang of using the forum. I still get my feet tangled up in the carpet's flowers too. We all do. :D

I sympathize with DeathtoToasters and others who aren't logged in or haven't subscribed yet and try to search. The security code, while an excellent idea, is painful.
