Media Puzzle

[loulizlee]

I understand the reason for the media puzzle, but why does it have to be so EXTREMELY difficult?  Today, I went through 20 or more before being able to solve the puzzle?  Could you use a slightly more readable puzzle?

What are the media puzzles?

[loulizlee]

The media puzzles are the puzzles you have to solve to get credit for some parts of FC.  For instance, after you do the first click-on, you have to solve the media puzzle to get credit and go to the next part.  It says words to the effect you have to stay on that site for 60 seconds.  The puzzle is a bunch of letters.  You have to type ("solve") them to be able to advance.  The purpose is security - to show that we are humans on the websites, not other computers.  On some websites that use them, the letters are fairly easy to read, but on this one and a couple of others I have seen, they look like abstract paintings.  I don't know about you other guys, but the letters are very hard for me to read, and I have better than 20/20 vision.  I can't understand the audio part, either.  It sounds so garbled on my computer.  I don't see why the "puzzles" can't be just a little easier to read.  Does anyone else have this problem?

The ones I receive are always simple when I do my daily e-mail and ptc. It usually involves typing in a word or words and they're always clear. I've never had a problem with them.

I know exactly what you mean. FC has the simple CAPTCHAs, but many other sites have those words that are jumbled together.

I usually don't have a problem being able to read what I need to type, I have more of an issue with how slow they are to load from time to time and once in a while the separate page that opens can also freeze up and won't allow me to close it down from time to time which also keeps my computer locked up or running slow.

I have never had a problem with the media puzzles for my daily e-mails until yesterday I typed in the word and then it went to the next screen like its suppose to but then when I closed out of the screen it told me that they have encountered a problem with the text I entered and for me to go back and retune it but each time it's the same result, here it goes doing the same thing this morning, so I am not certain what's happening. I wonder if its because I am using my iPod most often it's my PC that I use but it couldn't be the iPod that's the problem because I have used it to type the text in the pass and it worked just fine, oh well we'll just have to hope this issue goes away soon for those of us who have encountered it!!!

I thought the puzzles are easy, at least they aren't like the captcha ones that no one can even read.

[bholmes618]

Agree that captcha on some sights are much harder to read.  Have had no problem with the media puzzles on fusion cash as far as reading.  The last couple of days there has been a script error when first signing on thru the daily email, but hitting the back button usually resolves that and brings up the word/phrase that needs to be entered.  I have never had to keep the ad open for 60 seconds in order to get credited.  The only thing that I actually have to stay on for a certain amount of time to credit is the daily paid to click.

I'm not sure if some of the managers of FC saw my post, but lately the media puzzles I get have been much easier.  I am getting the error also, but I did find that going back solved the problem for that particular puzzle.  Anyway, thanks for your help.

I've had some that I couldn't do but was able to get a better one to come up.  I hate capchas.  I don't understand why they couldn't put up a bunch of pictures and say click the turtle of something simple that computers can't do but humans can.

Hum I didn't even know about the media puzzle, thanks for the info.
