Oh boy...has this been happening frequently to you, or a one-time thing?

[MONEYMAGIC]

I have had a few hard codes recently. Also, im getting fed up of entering my username and password, and it says enter security code? Sometimes it does, and other times it just signs me in. Even though I never enter it wrong.

[Amberr]

I've noticed this aswell, i'm forever having to refresh it so i can actually get a code that is readable. It's happening for anything though not just habbo, i think there actually starting to increase security for once, even though it's only going to be from bots.

[Mr-Trainor]

It's not just Habbo, I find this on a lot of other places as well and it does get annoying.
Yetsurday though, I saw one which just said 'enter any 9 numbers' which was easier.

[BingoBenny]

How is your landing page still like that? Mine is a sort of summery themed landing page, my landing page login bit looks different to that too.
weird.

oh, 26/06/10.

[Sharon]

Yeah their getting annoying even with the odd comma now :L

[Nemo]

they seem to be getting harder everywhere, but iguess thats true anti-bot security when even a human cant tell what it is

I agree. Is it not just a standard system which they all use?

[Dinosaurawrr]

actually this is true it took me like 20 times to try and get the security code for hxf.....
in the end i gave up and asked oli 2 reset for me LOL
strange :(

[Circadia]

Humm i came across one with a comma in it i was like do i put the comma in or not >.<

[Circadia]

And like how you menna know what the last bit is in this code ?

[Matthew]

[Gibs960]

Yeah, I'm having a few hard ones on Tinypic too, but that's it.

Yet another hard one..
I actually typed articles properly, and it worked.

That's because with a reCAPTCHA system you only EVER have to write ONE of the words - usually the longer one... go try it. ;P

That's just how reCAPTCHAs work. ^^

[Verrou]

Oh haha Alex beat me to it. Yeah you only need to enter the longer word and then some random letters for the other one.

[rifleboyaka]

Yeah, there becoming harder on all the websites I go on now :(

[,elaboratedolls]

UGH. Theres some that are just impossible. Habbo.es has some quite hard ones :/

[lTraditional]

Yeh, It is annoying but it is better then getting Spam Bots everywhere! Not just Habbo as everywhere they keep getting harder which is more annoying!! Also, Habbo.es is a differant country and therefore it is going to be harder!^^

[vito201-:D]

You don't even need random letters - just need to write the longest word. ;]

Tbh, I would've thoguht they both use Google's reCAPTCHA by now... if they don't then HabboES just uses the OLD HabboUK CAPCHA image... I very, very much doubt it'll be in a different language... ;P

[Jordan]

Agreed with the title of this thread. It took me like 10 attempts to actually change my password -.-

[Bryan-Tah]

LOOOl at them security codes

[Wheeeeee]

This is reCAPTCHA. I've seen a few hard ones lately. I've had one where it looked like .~' and I got it correct.

[Muct]

Ye, I've noticed that they are getting pretty harder and longer....
It takes me like 50 times everytime to log in now...

[Nikki]

Sometimes some of the backgrounds make it hard to see what the letters are, but I haven't noticed them getting harder they have always been complex.

I hate captcha these just look hardd

reCaptcha is english only (although I've been seening some chinese letters recently for some reason). You might not think it's that big of a problem because they can still understand the letters but for example; there's no X in the Spanish language so it's doubtful that their keyboards will have the letter X.

[Nuxty]

The security codes are getting rather pathetic, I have to agree! I mean come on, I got one the other day and the numbers were shaped really funny.

[crazed]

Most of them a like squiggles and a word. You just put the word in.....

[KebabJuice]

yeah i've seen this too. and with bad eyesight like mine you can hardly make it out sometimes

[Samantha]

I was trying to upload a picture on tinypic earlier and the security code was just unreal. I couldn't read it and it had way too many characters for my liking. I then tell them to give me another and I just struggled to input that one too, but I did it finally.
