==Re:Captcha==
Hi! Thank you for your helpful edits! :) Sorry to hear about the Captcha being awkward, I relate with that; sometimes the questions are quite hard or the seemingly right answers are wrong. :/
Yes, for a while bots have been registering and posting spam again, so the [[Starfy Wiki:Staff#Patrol team|patrol team]] have helped with deleting the spam as it comes. I'm unsure if the bots still get through, but I remember us installing a Captcha as spam used to be a heavy problem. I'm unsure if we got rid of it, and there is a chance that [[User:Michael|Tappy]] (who runs the server) may have installed it again, so that we don't have to manually delete their spam (which is usually done on the user pages now), as I believe you may have to be autoconfirmed (a group that is set after a certain amount of time since registering) to create new pages.
To answer your question, if I set your user groups to emailconfirmed and/or patroller this may enable you to bypass the Captcha as a temporary solution. I'll do this now, let me know if this works. Another solution may be to make it so new registrations on the wiki have to be confirmed through email, so that the spam bots cannot register. --[[User:Torchickens|Torchickens]] ([[User talk:Torchickens|talk]]) 00:47, 4 November 2018 (UTC)

  • Your userpage is a great place to tell the wiki about yourself, if you want to make one.
  • Recent changes allows you to see what pages other people have been editing, and it gives you a good idea on where you can start helping.
