Title: Captcha Issues
Post by: llwrstlr on April 21, 2013, 11:33 pm
Does anyone else have an issue posting on here because of the captcha?  I am 100% positive I am entering the correct letters and more than 50% of the time it tells me I am entering the wrong letters.  I'll be surprised if it doesn't do it this time!

I had the same issue..turns out I was using the wrong SR link..make sure you have NO ectra letters/numbers in your login URL
check for a ".to" before the onion in your SR address
someone helped me remember it like this
silkroad
(V)isual (B)oard
(5piz)za
(3r)eturned
(.onion)
hope this helps..check your URL..if the ".to" is there..you are NOT safe!
wish some of the powers that be would post this, seems a lot of us fell for this at one time or another

Thanks for letting me know that.  I wonder why downloading the Tor Browser Bundle has the ".to"?  I thought that was supposed to be the safest way to install Tor?

seems the wiki link for SR is always messed up..I have no idea if yours got installed with the bundle? My tor download was fine, it was when i did an uninformed search of the SR link..that's why i have it memorized now :)

Once you hit 100 posts, you won't have to enter the CAPTCHA any more.
