Appreciated, some other people on [H] forums point that out to me, guess i am not a hardcore Buffalo fan to know the answer to such a question, i am sure many other's arent either and considering it has been 3 days since emailing them about it, hate to think of how many people can't register on the forums cause of this.

it is really the worst captch system i have ever seen and since bots can get past over %95 of captch systems these days, just have better forum moderators around to deal with any spam that does get by.

Before I added those questions, the place was overflowing with spam. The spammers, including Mr. Amazing Spiderman 2 there, will teach it to their bots eventually. And then I'll have to change it.

Eastmarch: With all due respect.......................your rationale and your intent goes way beyond *any* common sense. You're not doing your company and products a service with how you handled this.

What I call it: "Completely out of touch".

Just to be clear: Believe me, I have no issue at all that you protect yourself from Spam! - What I object to is exactly what this thread addresses: When first registering, I had no clue *what* the answer was to Q 2. This is not how you invite people into a forum, you drive the away.

The spam is back -_- maybe we can adopt what google does with the box that says your not a robot and you put a check mark in it?
