The reCAPTCHAs have suddenly become almost illegible. I regularly have to change it four or five times before I find one I can read. I am tempted to just enter the known word (an easy guess), and leave the other. Can something be done?

This appears:     Our apologies, this form has been disabled due to suspicious content. If you believe you have received this message in error, please contact the original form author.     How can I make my form code work?

I'm a bit confused as to why people make bots to do this - is it to find vulnerabilities?   I recently upgraded my contact form security with more client and server side validation, including a honeypot and log/ban to stop erroneous submissions on my contact forms.  While this cured the issue quick fast and in a hurry, I'm still not 100% sure why this even happens.  continued Most of the submissions were gibberish, however, I did recently have an email hijacked and a malicious script tried to send thousands (almost 6,000) spam emails in just a few minutes.  I think a weak password was the cause and I'm not convinced they're related, but the  possibility looms in my mind. Thankfully, my server has a threshold of 500 emails per hour and cut it 5,500 short.

I'm not able to answer a question on Stack Overflow because the Human Verification page is showing up but without any CAPTCHA. I found many questions relating this but without a solution that worked for me. I guess this has something to do with my No-Script settings (Firefox plug-in). I selected "Temporarily allow all this page" several times but without success. I don't know of any proxy related restrictions on my internet connection but anyhow I there were some, I couldn't change them. Does this mean I can't pass the "Human verification"?

In  I see from time to time the indicator kind of resetting itself. It does not know anymore that I already &quot;confirmed&quot;/&quot;noticed&quot; the new rep. Then I see something like this for instance:  or smaller numbers. But I am sure I did not gain any or so much rep since the last time I clicked on that number. This happens whenever I delete a post of mine. BTW my internet connection is excellent and the websocket connection is absolutely stable.

I found another odd bug... but I can only repro it in Firefox (40.0.2 for OSX). It doesn't occur in Chrome or Safari. I understand that, if it is a FF only thing, there's possibly nothing you guys can do about it, but I thought I'd put this out here anyway.  I use the magic hyperlink button to create links because they're pretty. Recently I've been noticing that, when I use it, I can't use ↓ until I click outside the text area.  The process is pretty simple:   Write two lines of text (to make sure you have a "down" to go to). Highlight some of the text on the upper line. Click the hyperlink button or use Ctrl + L. Paste the link into the text area. Hit Enter/Return to close the dialogue. (Hitting the OK button will not repro the issue.) Try to use the down arrow&hellip;. No response.   As long as you don't click out of the text input area, you will not be able to use the down button. Even using your mouse to move the cursor to another spot doesn't make it work. The other three direction arrows work fine.  This may or may not be related to ... I don't remember running into this issue until the last week or so.

that I posted on Meta.Programmers was rather broken, with a block quote replaced by apparently random letters and numbers. Aarthi fixed it with a non-breaking space, but I don't understand what went wrong.  When I opened the post for editing, the displayed text was what I intended to go there. It only happens when the post is viewed in the reading mode. The preview also displayed the text correctly.

This  (and connected links) give good advice on the sorts of things to do.  But they do not say what the criteria for lifting of an answer ban is.  I'm assuming there is some algorithm involving rep, time maybe, maybe certain activities?   It also doesn't say whether one is notified or one just has to use trial and error.  I have no idea of the effort involved in getting ban lifted and whether it is worth while or not.

When I ignore a user, the avatar list looks weird.    The blank line beneath the row with the avatar of the ignoree is quite annoying.    I use Google Chrome on OS X.  There was a  tagged  but it still looks weird.

I flagged something as spam, then was only 90% sure I'd done so, so I clicked the flag link again to check. It showed me this:    I had, of course, only raised the spam flag, not the offensive/abusive/hate flag, so the latter probably shouldn't be saying I did.    Ah, this may be a duplicate, I didn't search enough:        And if so, it's been around a while.

I've been lurking Stack Overflow whenever I had a problem for at least the last 2+ years. More times than not, I find my solution (or cobble one together) before I get frustrated enough to have the innernets help me with my specific custom problem.  Many times, the only commentary I would be able to add would be "thanks!" which really only wastes bits and bandwidth.  I understand implementing measures to keep the bots and SEO kids out, but sometimes it's a PITA to start participating in a community.  If you couldn't extract my question from the above rant (or title), this might be a little more clear:  Why do I require 15 reps to just up-vote something?  I feel like it's kinda silly.  Additionally, I noticed the quote off to the left:     We prefer questions that can be answered, not just discussed.   yet I have looked around here and haven't been able to find any justifiable explanation.

I've noticed that emails are not protected in the user description. For example  entered his email and when viewing the source code of the page it is plain text that malicious bots could harvest and exploit to spam. It would be nice if email addresses were automatically encoded to prevent this.

I don't have enough rep to view deleted posts yet. So should I be able to see the first few lines of a post via the tooltip?: (ie. rolling over the titile of a post gives you a tooltip with the first few lines of the post, just like hovering over a question on the main question page)    Yes, it's spam, I know, but there are more legit reasons for flagging - should a low-rep user be able to see a bit of this content??

Not entirely sure what's happening here but it definitely looks wrong:    The message popped up at the same time as the Congratulations message.     Our system has identified this edit as possible spam; please review carefully   It doesn't show up if you load up  now so possibly this is no-repro or possibly it only happens when you initially pass a review, or perhaps most likely it's always done it and I'm missing the point entirely. In any case if it is a bug it is certainly minor.  Using Safari 7.0.1 Mac OS X.

I, like most SE users, am occasionally presented with a CAPTCHA to prove I'm human for one of any number of reasons. At the time of this writing there are  and  on Meta regarding CAPTCHAs and such questions often appear on the Community Bulletin (one appeared today which is what prompted this request). If I could search by emotion, I'm guessing the majority would be tagged .  On Monday, Google announced that  they have developed can solve reCAPTCHA with a 99.8% success rate. Searching around for  indicating human solve success rate all indicate percentages less than that (for audio CAPTCHAs much less than that). This is no longer a valid method for determining if a user is human.  The  to the highest rated Meta question on CAPTCHAs indicated that the SE staff were "heavily discussing this issue" and "agree that the current state of affairs sucks big-time" back in August 2012. Considering the advancement of a computer's ability to solve CAPTCHAs since then, I think it's about time for an alternative.  I'm not claiming to have a definitive answer but suggestions are, of course, welcome.  And I understand that polishing the meta split is probably priority right now, but can we at least get this on the docket?

I understand that there is an upper limit. But why do you have to type at least 15 characters to post a comment? It is easy to work around it anyway (like adding dots or other useless things).

It's a bit frustrating that, even though I'm above rep 100 on Stack Overflow, I'm still restricted with the most basic 'idiot prevention' limits on the other sites as I start there. Really, is it necessary to prevent me from creating a new tag or posting more than once in 20 minutes? I can see holding off edits, or even comments, until I've proved to have a brain in the domain in question.  You could see this as a request for a feature.
