Is it Just Me?

that has trouble with those little ‘word verification’ boxes? You know, those random mixes of letters & numbers that are supposed to weed out the non-humans. My brain always wants to turn the mixed up letters into a word & I really have to concentrate to get it right. Perhaps I’m not human that’s why it fools me.  Smile

I know what you mean, it is the fact that the words are incorrect that get me, a bit like finding a spelling mistake in a book or newspaper. In fact, I do wonder why bloggers use this system because it is an optional extra. Ooh, look, you have one of these strange words under your comment box too. When we started blogging, we were advised to use moderated comments system. That way you can stop any rude or unkind comments or those linked to porn sites going through. Yes indeed, it does happen. Now, how do I spell that word?

Jenny I know what you mean about finding spelling mistakes in newspapers & books, it really annoys me. & the grammar in newspapers, I rarely read them, but when I do I sometimes wonder if they've been written by a child.
Chookyblue I've found that too, the word does sometimes match the comment, often in a funny way.
