Title: what is a verification code?
Post by LaughingRain on Jan 12th, 2008 at 11:29pm
Hi Allen :-?

I cant get the new password to LaffingRain account because the board is asking me to input a verification code which is not there.each time I click on "forgot password"  this verification code is requested. ha! this puter is asking the impossible of me as it won't send new password until I input a ver.code

I tell u there must be spirits tricking me! haha!

in case you're curious how I got in this time, I used another browser and I'm signed in all the time on Safari browser on this LaughingRain account.

I guess I'm making a big deal out of it :-X  I'm going to go load up firefox again. it may be camino browser the problem.

Do u know a code u can send me?

Just above where it asks you to enter the verification code, it should say, "Your Verification Code is: " followed by a box with graphical characters.   The code is very faint and may be hard to see on some monitors.  It is this way to fool the "bots" that try to automatically recognize the code.  It is (hopefully) only recognized by the human eye.  It kind of reminds me of those "secret decoder rings" I used to get in the cereal boxes when I was a kid.  Give it a try and if you are still having problems seeing the verificaiton code, let me know and I will try to help you further.

hi

I found the verification code Allan, but on my monitor I needed to highlite it. even so my eyes must be to bad..I wear 300 lens reading glasses, but can barely make out white letters on this monitor. then puter said no such member as LaffingRain, so inputed it with lower caps as it originally was. no dice. so did the email address as user. no dice.

but you like me right? I'm like a pitbull.  >:(

The lower-case one worked for me.  I had it send you an e-mail.  Let me know if you get it.

it also came to the new email address u changed for me. the first time you sent me something went to my bulk folder in yahoo on the 11th. I just found it there today. that one didn't work. today this one did. thanks for all your patience. I feel like one silly woman right about now. ::)

Glad you are working again.  I think if you go into a message sent from afterlife-knowledge.com in Yahoo and click the "Add to address book" link next to the "From" address, then future messages from afterlife-knowledge.com should go into your Inbox instead of bulk mail.  It might be worth a try.
