Not at all - and I`m glad you raised it.

The verification box is our way of trying to beat the spammers and hackers trying to log onto a forum.

You only have to verify for the first few posts, and if all goes well, our system will detect that you are managing to cope with it and will then disable the process after half a dozen posts or so.

Just our way of keeping track of how you guys are coping with it.

pick a colour thats discrimination on the folks with a disability what if you are colour blind. 
I had to visit a mates house to tell him the actual colour he had painted his car as somebody gave him a tin of red and he had no idea of the tone/shade.
colour of snow had me as you do not eat the yellow version.
