What is special about the K2 login function?

Im using Joomla 1.5.13 with a RocketTheme template and their bridge and plugin for PHPBB3. With all three having their own login functions its a bit confusing, plus I'd like to use some kind of CAPTCHA etc to stop spam registrations.

Any advice please?

well.... what I do on my site (uses community builder) is I have the CB login box on the front page and when that logs them in they can then see a logged in version of the K2 login box module on their profile page which allows them to edit pages etc.
obviously it would be nice to merge of these logons somehow though!

Isn't is possible to add the K2 features within a plugin of some sort. And that plugin then adds some extra features to the standard login form?

I've changed my system now...I use the CB logon as the ONLY logon module, but I enabled K2 logon temporarily copied the links from 'my items' and 'add new item' then create new 'link' menu items to point to these under a user control panel menu item.
works a treat and you can then just disable the k2 logon module.

I would like to disable the K2 logon and use only the CB logon/registration.
Is it possible?

As a temporary solution I also created a "Add New Item" link, but as a wrapper. The cancel button still does not work as a wrapper

I'd actually like to merge the jomsocial login with K2 if anyone knows how?
