Ah great thing that you brought it up. I thought I already added it to the main post, but apparently it was just me thinking about doing it. Added the information to the thread. Needa also edit the registeration screen a bit to include it.

[quote=Jinxy post_id=58135 time=1489897690 user_id=1740]Might wanna announce it somewhere more publicly so people know what to do, for the time being at least. :)[/quote]

It's stated in the prompt itself that you have to enter "guest / guest".

That's just the thing, it doesn't state it. It only asks for "authentication", at least on Google Chrome. :/

(my BBCode in this thread doesn't work for some reason so you'll probably have to click the above).

Translation of the French:
"Authentification required.

It has come to my attention that some people aren't getting the bot prevention screen actually like it should be. If you are having trouble logging on with your normal username/password and the forum gives you a pop up asking for your info, it should look like this: [img]http://eurobeat-prime.com/How3.jpg[/img]
Not sure whether the image turns different if you've got your windows with a different language than English or whatnot, but it's just there to block bots from signing on.

So to recap. That little window asks you to type in guest / guest to get in.

This definitely needs to be a global sticky in every subform and should also be added to the news blurb regarding forum upgrades on the main site.

edit - bbcode not enabled either? I hope additional changes/tweaks are on the way...
