Timeouts, eh?

I guess I need to refer to it as the old slow guy with bad eyes captcha!

It does time out. If I wait too long between the time I call up the comment window and the time I actually submit, I’m given a new captcha to type in. If I do it all fairly quickly, I usually get it on the first try.

Heck, I’m 23 and have trouble with them. The letters cross and dance and it’s bad. But they’re a necessary evil. Just like spell check, which can’t sem to remember my name (grrr).

You would think there would be a feature to bypass the captcha if you’re logged onto your own blog, but NOOOOOO. Even leaving a comment on my own site, it usually takes me two or three tries. Even with my bifocals!

I think the blogspot captcha is buggy. I’ve noticed that I usually have to resubmit long comments. Perhaps it times out?

I usually have to submit at least twice before it works. I guess it’s “old gal with bad eyes capcha” in my case. Funny thing is, I’m usually SURE I put it in right the first time. I even double check…and still have to resubmit.

Hey, maybe the captcha is buggy?
