this login check is annoying for people who keep their pc secure. i delete my cookies daily if not more often. who the hell would waste there time with a brute force on this site??? is there a secret vip section??? if someone is stupid enough to choose a common password then they deserve an attack on intelligence

I agree with you 100% but you completely missed the point.


AFAIK, nobody's account was ever accessed by the 'hacker'.
The annoyance was that it gueses each user's pass more than 5 times triggering an email alerting of possible hacking attempts on the user's account.
A user would get 5+ emails per night, until I added the CAPTCHA system to log in.


This was months ago; a few weeks ago I even tried removing it and the problem returned, so captcha was put back.

There were enough accounts that were accessed also...

Isn't it possible to use another CAPTCHA system? This one makes it very hard at times to distinguish between upper and lower case (at least I think that's why I have a hard time logging in at times)

whatever do what the fu*k u want just cause a few lamers we all suffer

Why not just check the "Remember Me" box? :huh:

nah, he deletes cookies so his parents wouldn't know what porn sites he's been visiting. not really a reason security should be lowered.

The upper/lower case doesn't matter.

Scrambled abusive clueless nubcakes FTL.

I've had some dip-shit attempt to hack into my account dozens of times and I think it should stay. While I use an insanely secure password it's clear that not everyone does, plus it just pisses me off when they try it. A little inconvenience is a small price to pay for peace of mind.
