Don't think it matters, it just differentiates between a human or a bot by having to input a command.

No, he didn't know what the correct answer was.
You should have said, "It is incorrect to say that I am NOT a real person."
So, the answer is No.

Depends.

If you spell your name in "Title Case" then you are a real person. This is called capitous diminutio minima.

If you spell your name in all "CAPITAL LETTERS" then you are a corporation. A non person. This is called capitous diminutio maxima.

In Latin:

capitous=entrap

diminutio=restriction

Better check your birth certificate and your IDs to make sure.

I fuxxing love you Q. lol

The reason that is there is so that bot tools can't register billions of accounts on the forums and spam us to death. It's a little tricky and crude, but it works well.

Of course, if you see spam on the forums, let a moderator or administrator, like myself, know about it. But welcome to the forums anyways, deoxxys, and keep on playing those Pokemonz! :D
