(2 Issues) Map image upload, Captcha and server claiming

To address the first issue: I try uploading an image for my map and it instantly just refreshes the page and nothing has changed apart from the file selected to upload, I'm sure I'm missing something but it just doesn't work for me.

Second issue: I heard there could've been a problem with users who haven't been registered for 7 days? It does not tell me that, just said verify code failed, I've tried for about 5 minutes straight of typing out Captchas and they've all failed, even the ones as simple as a few numbers.

Edit: Forgot, Garry's Mod is the game if that helps.

1. Captcha does work. Some people find it 'tricky' but I recently added four servers without any issues with captcha at all - keep trying.

2. Map images must be approved by an admin. Don't ask me please, it's not my job and I have nothing to do with it directly.

3. Waiting 7 days to register ownership of a server page isn't a 'problem' - it's a site rule. (on which we are totally inflexible).
Aside from server page registration I am not aware of any other '7 day' restrictions.

Finally - apologies for the change to the topic subject text, but topic subjects should ideally be brief, not the entire problem/question

Thanks, I just needed support for this one thing and mostly just use gametracker for other servers. Very much appreciated.

By the way, I know it's a site rule but don't understand how it works, since registration of my account or registration of the server? If it's the server, you said they were flexible, is there any way I can get manager early via contacting support etc.?

It is only 7 days wait from the time you register your profile/account on Gametracker. That is new 'members' must wait 7 days before they may register as the owner of a server.

You are in the clear by a substantial margin.

I don't mean to give you English lessons, as your English is exceptionally good, but 'inflexible' is the complete opposite of 'flexible'.

No one has ever been allowed to register as a server owner in less than 7 days.
That said, no one has so far tried offering the site owners (I am not an owner by the way) thousands of USD to register early. I might work (but I doubt it)

I have only activated my account today, I know that seems strange but I must've registered it to get my own profile a while ago, could this affect it?

I must've read whatever you said wrong, I read that as flexible.

I've tried time and time again with the captcha but it doesn't seem to work and gives me the Invalid message.

(I know you're not the server owner I can clearly read you're a site moderator, and a dedicated one at that)

Your date joined should be the date that is taken into account.

Have you read: How can I claim my server page??

I understand how it works now, I completely missed the help on the side.
It seems like I have to change the server name which is more than I'm willing to do just to track player stats, seeing as 50+ people actively play it (more or less) 24/7.

Guess the individual score for that session will suffice.

You change it back after you have claimed the server
