        if (empty($_POST['g-recaptcha-response']))
           wp_die( __("<b>ERROR:</b> Seems you haven't check I'm not a robot! Please select and try again.<p><a href='javascript:history.back()'>« Back</a></p>"));
        
        // If google says its not a valid captcha or feels like spammer then stop.
        else if (!crunchify_check_if_valid_captcha($_POST['g-recaptcha-response']))
           wp_die( __("<b>Hey.. Seems you are a SPAMMER!!!</b>"));

        $crunchify_captcha_postdata = http_build_query(array(
