SMF For Free Support Forum

Forum Url: http://glitchpc.freesmfhosting.com/index.php
I just had a member of this board contact me through this site...because I have no means of guests contacting me through my forum.  It was due to a registration issue...specifically, reCAPTCHA.  I have no control over the reCAPTCHA settings, other than to disable it or change the severity of the images.  I tried switching from the medium setting to the simple setting but, it won't let me.  This user also complained that letters were showing up in the reCAPTCHA image that don't even appear on his keyboard...and he has tried to register 9-10 times on my forum.

I had previously started a thread about a Contact Us form.  I, now, have a new issue...

Not having a means of contact on my forum is a real "bummer".  Nobody really wants to use a their own e-mail client for contact purposes...PHP Form Mail is the way to go.  We paid for the upgrade on our account...and it removed the branding and ads...and, also,  gave us extra features but, what we really need is a means for our guests to contact us through the site.

I, initially, thought free forum hosting may be the way to go...but, it looks like it's not all it's cracked up to be.

While the support here is "awesome"...there needs to be more control given to the Administrators of one's own board.  In the interim, I think I've found someone who is going to host my site for free...I already have the domain name and was going to park it here but, as you can see...it's not very likely.

I'm really not one to complain but, as you can see...having issues, such as this one, is not something an Administrator should have to deal with...especially if the issue is not under their control.
