Description

I can't pass the security check because it isn't there! So I can't create an account on the forum. Living in China now.
I can't even report the problem on the forum because it needs security check. I'm not asking for help here and I'm pretty sure it's a bug from the forum or the security check service provider.
I'm sorry that it may not be a proper place to report this but it's my only way to report this issue.

I've heard that reCaptcha often doesn't work in China because it's run by Google which is often blocked.

Some info about it here:

https://www.quora.com/Since-Google-reCAPTCHA-does-not-work-in-China-how-do-Chinese-websites-prevent-bots-and-denial-of-service-attacks

Google's suggestion is to use www.recaptcha.net instead of www.google.com but it apparently doesn't work anymore. It would be up to the KSP Devs to use a different Captcha or else you could maybe use a VPN or proxy.
