Not possible to register without being considered spam

[daryl.suen@…]

Hi. I'm trying to create an account but when I try to register the page the checks to see if I am a human shows test pictures that are completely blurry. I must have failed that test because it accused me of being spam. I tried to do the procedure over again but the system automatically identifies my email as spam. How can I create/register an account. I'm trying to do volunteer OSM work.

Very much, not blurred here, but not able to get past the CAPTCHA check. The preferences save name/email does not persist either, gone when returning.

By the way, user mtom seems to be a spammer.

Deleted ticket:123#comment:2 and ticket:123#comment:3 and deleted the 3 entries in the spam monitoring list as spam.

For both of the people in this ticket:

• I don't find any entries for attempted registration with your IP and/or e-mail addresses. This either means you did register with different data or your spam score was above 90% for the bayes filter alone, which is VERY spammy!
• To contribute to OSM a registration for JOSM webpage is of no use at all. You first should understand what you actually want, see #Thissite
• If you properly fill-out login form including all fields, then registration usually succeeds.

For future reference - I get thousands of failed registration attempts a month. When yours fail report them as exact as possible (including exact time) or I simply can't check them. Add ALL the information you used for registration, parts which are sensitive (like mail address) probably in a redacted form.

If you still need an account and still have problems registering after filling the form completely reopen the ticket with the requested information.
