When registering for this forum I was asked a number of questions to help ascertain whether or not I am human. One of them was "What year is next?" or something similar. Am I just being dense here or is the correct answer to that 2022? I changed it to 2021 and it worked.

As far as I know this should have been fixed by now.
(most of the time I ignore long posts)

Hi,
This problem has not been solved. When i entered 2025 it didnt accept my answer. I changed my to 2024 it accepted my answer. Maybe they left it as it is intentionally (for security reasons)

I just registered yesterday and had the same problem.
The registration asks for next year but 2025 is not accepted.
When I tried 2024 it was accepted 😅

Hello,
I have just registered on the forum.
I also had to enter "2024".
So the problem is still not fixed.

Is it not possible to get the year off the server with PHP,  or maybe get the month off the server with PHP and ask the human for that.
It has been a couple of decades now since I used PHP to make a visitor record, on a txt file.
