BookCrossing/BookCrossing Localization

Hello, 
 
Thank you for getting in touch. 
We're sorry to hear that you are having issues signing up to the website. It looks like you are running into an issue with reCAPTCHA. 
You could try using a VPN whilst creating your account. That might very well help. 
 
FYI : reCAPTCHA is a free service from Google that helps protect websites from spam and abuse. A “CAPTCHA” is a turing test to tell human and bots apart.  
It is easy for humans to solve, but hard for “bots” and other malicious software to figure out.  
We’re using v3, which happens in the background, so you don’t see it unless you fail.  
 
Therefore the issue you are encountering is that Google is flagging you as a robot or from an unsafe source, so the issue is down to your IP address. 
As a first step, we suggest using your smartphone to sign up. Ensure you are disconnected from WIFI and instead using your data - thus using a different IP address from your laptop/computer.  
 
Please let us know if this works for you, and if it does not, please come back to us so we can troubleshoot for you further. 
 
If you would like us to set up an account for you manually, please let us know your: 
- first and last name 
- what country you are in 
- what is your State / Province 
- what city you are in 
- the username of the person who has referred you to BookCrossing (if applicable) 
- and also what username you would like to register with.....but please bear the following limitations in mind: 
---- 15 letter character limit 
---- English characters and Arabic numerals 0-9, characters - . _ only; no spaces 
 
We look forward to hearing from you.

bookcrossing 
n.  the practice of leaving a book in a public place to be picked up and read by others, who then do likewise. 
Concise Oxford English Dictionary 
 
That's the official word, but BookCrossing is much more than that. It's become a way of life, a passion and a global phenomenon. It's serendipity, good karma and random acts of kindness rolled into one. 
 
BookCrossing has transformed lives through simple sharing of books. A vibrant international community has formed around this common cause, focused on a love of literature. 
 
BookCrossing was conceived on the principle that two things can change people's lives: the books they read and the people they meet. It's a novel way to circulate books: no library card, no due date, no fines.
