Word verification?

Why do I keep getting these when I post? Are they on everyone's posts or just mine?

I take it that the purpose is and anti spam measure.

@Gradlon - 505 is not impossible but, it's more likely to be a 404 or a 503 error. In any case, the numbers following the letters xid will specify the precise error. It can actually be something as simple as the server being busy.

Re: Word verification?

It annoys me when I have to keep typing the word verification in, even though I'm typing it out correct!

I think it's great too. On the old forum, I used to have to ban 100 or more spammers every day as well as delete their posts. Sadly, this is just about the only feature of this new forum that I like better than the old.

It's great to get rid of the spammers. Although I must admit that I get annoyed sometimes when I get the verification. Like "I'M NOT A FREAKING SPAMMER!!"
