The Cousin Collector

Well, sorta.

Unfortunately, I just can’t keep up with them. By the time I find that the site is being hammered and scraped, the damage is already done. The only solution I know of at this point is to require you, the “real” users, to register and login. Ugh.

I really hate when I have to do this myself. I get it, but I hate it.

One method of proving a potential user is a “real” person is a CAPTCHA challenge. I especially don’t like these because there are too many of them I can’t read. So, register and login it is.

You do have options, though. Many of the areas have a login and password of “Guest” (without the quotes). This seems to be the most painless way to do it. Some sections do require registration, but rest assured I have no interest in harvesting your emails or selling . . . [Yes! There’s more!]
