Err… that is, it’s not as if they haven’t had this issue pointed out.

@meloukhia: And the worst thing is, it's not as if they've had this accessibility issue pointed out to them before.

I actually really loathe Ning, for that reason among others.

Speaking of fail, I know this isn’t The Deal With Disability’s fault, but it is the fault of the service, Ning, on which the forum is hosted… but still…

They’re using ReCAPTCHA and have hidden the link to the audio CAPTCHA. Y’know, the one that is quite literally built into the system they’re using.

The lack of an accessible option was at least excusable when they had rolled their own CAPTCHA, but it’s just a flat-out case of They Just Didn’t Care now.

RE: Kourtney Wilson. Someone just try to tell me that her race had nothing to do with that bullshit. C’mon, just try. It’s sad, too, because she probably will be afraid to call for help again, and who knows, the next time she could very well die. FSM I quit the world.
