(I don’t know where else to post, maybe someone here can help, and Neocities is open source…)

I want to create a site on Neocities. I fill out the signup form, solve the captcha, but when I click the “Create My Site” button, nothing happens. I click it again, and after a delay it starts loading something, but then just says “The captcha was not valid, please try again.”

This happens regardless of the browser, machine or IP address I’m using.

Does anyone have any idea what might be the problem, and hopefully how to solve it? Is it just me or does anyone else have the same issue? I’ve sent an email to the admins two days ago, but still have gotten no reply, and I can find no info on this elsewhere online.

EDIT (20-8-2024): It’s working now, probably they fixed it, woo! :D

      Nope. I actually tried using a proxy and it got rejected for that very reason (with a different message), whereas two normal IPs had the problem described in OP.
