1. Recaptcha Bad

I recently tried to login in to my old account, which had been blocked. I could not, nor even create a new account, because I could not get thru the Recaptcha process. This is not the first time I have failed Recaptcha, on other sites. I really dislike it and think it is a good idea to get rid of it. Below is a link to some alternatives:

Same here. I have forgotten my password and tried several times, but never did see the Recaptcha image. Eventually I e-mailed the Admins and got it reset.

The only problem here is that I thought I had updated all of the reCAPTCHA forms from the old version to the new version but apparently I missed the "forgot password" form (although I swear I did fix it a while ago). I will look into it this weekend.

Although I don't think I'm going to get rid of reCAPTCHA because the new one is a lot better than previous incarnations. We've had some issues with unauthorized access to the site and I'm going to do the best I can to prevent that.
