Parler Is Inept! I'm Done With Social Sites

12/10.20 | Chuck Ness

Screen print of Parler's captcha not recognizing my input.
This after over 50 rejections of what I typed in.

So I tried to join Parler. Their requirements for a password are as follows,

Use eight or more characters with at least one capital letter, lowercase letter, number, and special character.

So I did as they required. Yet, I was denied my chosen password 35 times before they accepted this password,

!9-chucK-56

Which begs the question, why did they deny this one,

!9-Chuck-20

Or this one

19Chuck-an-!2

Now consider this password they suggested I use

aCb-1fd3-Q!&m

Yet they rejected over 35 passwords I offered that were very similar to the one they suggested.

Finally a password I offered to their password god was accepted. So now I was onto typing the letters from the Captcha so they will know I am a real human. I figure I'm in like Flynn now.

Not so fast.

For the next 15 minutes, and after well over 50 or more tries, I could never get them to accept what I typed in. Now I'm used to captcha being used. After all, seems like 99% of the places you go to join, or when you order things online, you have to match the characters offered to prove your are human.

Well, after many moons (seemed like) of trying to get past the captcha menu, I finally took a screen print to prove to my wife that it's not me but their stupid software. After all, she was already getting tired of listening to me yelling at the monitor during my attempts to get a password accepted. Now this.

Mind you, she knows the troubles I have at with fb. So she has been pushing me to leave fb and join a different Social site that will allow it's users the freedom to share what they want and believe what they want. Well, I finally decided to join one. Then this happens.

So, since Parler will not allow me to join their site, I will not waste any more of my time trying. Their ineptitude is beyond rediculous.

I am fed up with these Social sites. I will not be joining Parler, because they won't let me. I'm finished with fb, since I refuse to waist any more of my time on posting things that less than 1% of my friends ever even see. I only have about 1200 friends anymore. I used to have almost 5000 friends, but I was suspended many times, had my account terminated a few times, and now everything I post gets shadow blocked, or removed for violating their rules. You know, the one's that say you can only share immoral communist propoganda ideas?

Well, they Win. I'm out of there. Goodby and good riddance to these moronic social sites. My experience is that Facebook is nothing more than a wing of the Democrat Party, and Parler sucks for their ineptitude.

They can all take a hike......

Well, my wife has actually wondered that at times.

Her great quote for me to a friend of hers once was,

Chuck is the worlds first living heart donor, he gave it away years ago. LOL

So maybe I’m not quite as human as Captcha requires me to be in able to get past that step.

[OneVike]

I agree. I have no problem being used for a profit on fb. I accept that, but not if they are going to abuse me. I feel the same way about products I purchase at a store, or when I buy a product made any any product.

Thus the reason I seldom buy name brand products, nor do I frequent places like Starbucks, and now fb. Plus why after 55 years as a Mn Vikings fan I gave them up. As I did all pro sports.

[lepton]

I mean, it WAS the first question. :)

[OneVike]

True.

I guess I was squeood from the start.

[moovova]

All seriousness aside. It was a bear for me to sign up...and the app is frustrating. I’ve found it easier to visit their online site rather than thru their app. I just stay logged in at the Parler site via Chrome.

[Buttons12]

All these require the user to actually have a WEB site to work with. Am I correct?

I really don't know, I've never used them. Occasionally I read community forums but I've told you all I know. Worth looking into, imo.

[OneVike]

Thanks

[aimhigh]

Parler is a great idea but it’s a mess to look at. I gave up on it too.

Ditto.

[drSteve78]

no problem signing up or signing in. Brave browser not Firefox

for the rest WHAT HE SAID is my echo

[dljordan]

Do you not see your problem there?

[dljordan]

The F is capitalized. He did NOT capitalize his F.

[Fledermaus]

Me too

[OneVike]

How many must I have to point to the fact that what you think is a capital F is a lower case f.

Look closely, the line gores through the line on it as it does in a lower case f.

A capital F does not have the line going through. Do not get confused with the size of the letters. They often times offer a lower case letter that is much larger than an upper case letter in the same captcha. Size matters not.

[Republican Wildcat]

That’s not an indication of anything as the captchas are distorted by design.

[TennesseeGirl]

"I gave up on it when it asked for a phone number. I’m not giving any personal information."

Ditto. Give them my phone number?!! Are they nuts over there? Why would they WANT my phone number just to be able to post on their site (yeah, yeah, I know...selling info to marketing groups.) Pass. I can live without them.

[9YearLurker]

Can’t be classic FR for conservative social media!

[minnesota_bound]

Looks like a capital F

[EBH]

the F was a capital F, not a lower case f as you typed it.

[OneVike]

Wrong
Look at the line going through it

F vs f

Do not be fooled with the size, because some has as much bigger than As

[OneVike]

I use FR, but I have a ministry where I try to reach many who are not here.

Sadly, Satan has pretty much closed my ability to reach those in need of Christ on fb

Si I am looking for other avenues.

When I am chased from one town, I will travel to another.
