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......

If all fails you always can join TRIGGERED run by Trump Jr. A while back I tried Parler and had the same experience, so I figured the hell with it as I sure can do without them.

Aww, verification from a trusted Freeper who knows for which I angst over.

Thanks.

[OneVike]

I’ll check it out.

Thanks

Did you try clicking that "Get New Captcha" link between the dialog box and the Next button? You might get a better image.

And like the other responder advised, change your password ASAP before someone logs in with it and changes it on you and will be able to impersonate you there - think posting terroristic messages, love letters to 0bama, etc.

I gave up on parlor, just trying to open an account is mind=boggling. Any site that hard to open an account in is not worth my time.

[Buttons12]

vbulletin.com
phpbb.com
mybb.com

There are others, I’m sure. Search “community forums.”

[T. P. Pole]

Ah, missed that. I read your list backwards, thinking the last one was the good one.

[Leep]

These “alternate” sites have to be ready to adjust to 100’s of thousands of new subscribers.
Whoever can do that has a real chance at making it.

Don’t be like FB with all kinds of gimmickry and intrusive ads..and other annoying crap ...or else what’s the point of switching?
Keep it lite and flowing. Thanks.

2 Part Flanking maneuver.

1. Fight for Fbook, Twitter, youtube. We must challenge them in court. Besides, that is where the independents hang out.
* Conceding the big boys is not a winning strategy. We need legal actions like monopoly and free speech legal actions.

2. The alternatives like Parler etc. will get better in time. If they don’t, others will come in and take that space.

Gab is much better

[Pollard]

PS.

MeWe even has firearm buy/sell/trade groups.

[OneVike]

I am a member of GAB, but for the good things you need to be a paying member. I refuse to pay of rot. When ads pay for it. Gab has ads, why a paywall?

[moovova]

Did you add shading to your letters/numbers like they did with theirs? If you didn’t, your input was not technically correct. Next time, use your “shade” key.

[OneVike]

I see

[OneVike]

Did you try clicking that "Get New Captcha"

Many, many, many times

Call the whambulance

[lepton]

Are you human?

[OneVike]

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

[OneVike]

????. you forgot the /s tag at the end of your suggestion.

You decide are you the customer or the product
