    hey rena,

    you sure sound confident about that. It's odd that veteran gmail creators like myself and others like clockwork all started having trouble at the same time, and same problem.....

    can you tell me how many your are able to create successively without problem?????(granted, some of their catpkas are almost impossible to read, but that would account for only a low number of retries)

    I use firefox primarily as well. Since I hadn't created any recently at the time I read 1st the post about the problem, I assumed the same as you.....so without current testing or numbers you can present, I believe the problem still exists......

    by all means Rena I hope you are correct, but the numbers and current testing seem to have opposite results....

    How many Gmail accounts are you creating anyway?

    If you have created 20 accounts in one day then Gmail will stop you from creating accounts. You could create another account after a week.

    The parallel to the posts is like you have a car that has been running flawlessly for years, then one day you get in the car and the car won't move because the transmission has slipped and become disconnected from it's housing.

    But everyone who's driven the car in the past assumes the car is fine and there's no problem and say things like "you sure you turned the car on" or "maybe you're have a problem with the battery" ...... the problem is no one else has tried to drive the car today, so they don't realize "things have changed"

    Gmail has been the same for so long that people don't believe there has been a change....again I'm no tech gmail specialist, but you guys are posting to this thread without testing the waters.. ...so you don't realize there really has been a change...

    Go take the car for a drive....then come back and post your results

    because Gmail has been the same for so long for so many, I think without trying themselves they assume we're doing something wrong...remember I've created many hundreds of gmails in the past...I'm no email god, but certainly very experienced and have lots of guys who say the same thing.....why don't you go create some gmails today, then your posts and replies will have more gravity

    thanks (I certainly hope I'm wrong, but prove it to me first)

    I created two in the last couple weeks (one new one for me, one for my wife), and never had any problems. I use Google Chrome, and she uses either Firefox or Opera.

    thanks phantom,

    I need some feedback from someone who wants to try to make ten, then let's see your results.....thanks, but one or two isn't enough of a sampling

    Previous there was a problem with gmail.
    To create one account it used to take 5 attempts even if we typed the correct capatcha.
    I used to attempt atleast 5 times to create an account with Gmail.

    I think its a technical error from Gmail.
    I think its sorted out now as from last one week i can create an account within one attempt.

    hey Killer,

    you hit the nail on the head....about 1 of 5 attempts...

    I have tried repeatedly even today and it is still the same way. I have a guy who specializes in creating gmail, CL, youtube and some other accounts. That's what he does for a living. He says that in fact there has been a change..

    I just sent him 8 bucks to create me a 100 gmails with a catchall, because it would take me days to do that......

    He agrees there has been a change, but never believe someone who benefits from your impressions, I asked him to elaborate when he sends me the spreadsheet.


    It doesn't rear it''s ugly head until you start attempting multiple gmail account creations...but, I still hope I'm wrong
    and that it's some weird anomoly that affects some and not others...but at this point we only have current experience
    as our guide...
