Title: You will not see this prompt again unless you have logged out.
Post by: famveld on December 24, 2014, 00:45
I never log out, but I must enter this 100% of the time when I go back to 123RF.

Only applies to this link: http://www.123rf.com/submit/commission.php (http://www.123rf.com/submit/commission.php)
it automatically forwards me to http://www.123rf.com/contrib_affirm.php?goback=http://www.123rf.com/submit/commission.php (http://www.123rf.com/contrib_affirm.php?goback=http://www.123rf.com/submit/commission.php)
and then ask me to enter this captcha, each time after i closed firefox.

Very annoying! Please remove this stupid captcha or make it permanent offline data in the FF cache or whereever you put it.

The simple and easy solution:
every time earnings are changed (someone buys something), calculate earnings balance of the author and cache somewhere.
Then show this value in the author's dashboard without the need to enter the captcha.

This solution will make authors not visiting the earnings page so often and thus will reduce the load of the server way better than by this captcha.

^ I told that to 123RF sometime ago.
They answered me that it is for a reason of security/privacy/secrecy…
So I ask them why under "download", where I can see the sales and the numbers too, I don't need the captcha.
I am still waiting the answer…

That ranks up there along with "your sales will double" as one of the great lies from 123RF.

This is something that has been complained about at 123 for years. It has nothing to do with security. As Beppo said, you can get to other pages with the same information.  The solution is simple, either fix the page, or delete the lie.

I was literally thinking the same thing an hour ago when I checked my downloads.

I complained about this many times as well indeed, they told me the same as they told Beppe
