FELH has a human operator. Unlike on Wikipedia, you don't need separate accounts here.

So how should the operator pass the login cookie to the bot?

I assume run the script on whichever computer you are on?

I occasionally use a python script to post on the fora. All it needs are troperhandle and mazeltov cookies set in the input function. I assume the bot works the same, with a tos cookie as well so that it can edit

I got some weird bug where I clicked on a subforum and it told me to log in, while saying at the top I was logged in, but when I entered my stuff it told me there was no handle. It was weird. surprised

Oh wait, other people are having this problem, and it is not my D Si this time. That's nice.

Help here, I have an account name Hollow Hawk, and when I tried typing in my password to get back in as Hollow Hawk, it failed, and I wanted to change it, so I typed in the email address of Hallow Hawk and the thing is this, they don't have it registered. Can anyone help?

This post was a repeat of the first, so forget this one and go [up].

Is it just me or are the words getting harder to decipher?

Also there seem to be another problem. I must of tried to enter the correct letters in ten times before quitting in frustration, only for it to tell me I was already logged in.

If you have issues with it try clearing your cookies for your browser.

The letters are definetly sometimes difficult to make out. The numbers are easier to read.

There is a thread discussing that here, too.

I wish there was a way to circumvent this; I can't log in on my cell phone since it's too frail to handle a browser that worked with the prove-you-human system .____. it positively sucks, since browsing/editing TVT on my cellphone has been a favourite way for me to pass time when I'm commuting

What phone are you using?

I've used Opera Mini on my Blackberry, and I didn't have any trouble with logging on.

Eddie said in the Tech Wishlist thread that the issue has been repaired. There's no point in having two separate threads for this.
