"What is the name of this site?" Prompt

Post by ifanyonecan »

I just joined today after reading page after page of these forums. I was somewhat frustrated while registering when it asked the name of this site. I tried "Texas CHL Forum", "TexasCHLForum", "www.TexasCHLForum.com", and several others until I found out the case-sensitive answer was "TexasCHLforum.com". Granted, that's the capitalization at the top of the page, but it didn't occur to me to leave the "f" lowercase. :roll: Nothing probably needs to be changed, it was just my own personal lack of awareness.

Thanks for the post; I added a note that the answer is case sensitive. Obviously, the question is designed to prevent spam bots from registering.

Thanks again for the tip,
Chas.

Welcome Ifanyonecan.

That probably won't be the last thing to frustrate you around here. lol
I'm mainly referring to the ambiguity of some laws and the lack of clarification in the courts because not very many people want to willingly become test cases.

Just a second person having the same problem with this. I tried to register several times, but kept trying different things, since looking at the top of the page, it's all in caps. Maybe it could be changed to a short question that would still prevent automated registration, but be easier to figure out? I would suggest, how does does the moderator sign his posts (Chas) or what does CHL stand for if a longer phrase was needed. Just a thought, since this stymied me quite a few time (i finally cut and pasted the title from the terms and conditions on the page before).
