    I made a suggestion about this about a month ago. Am curious to see if u guys took my suggestion or already had this in the works.

    Also, would it not make better sence to only have the captcha on the log in? Rather than randomly while u play. It is obvious that timing attacks is way to risky if your gambling on captcha timing, not to mention defending.

    Well captcha was the thing that a lot of people suggested as a way to combat botting. The only thing that concerns me is how much it'll affect the PvP game play. Nothing worse then setting up an attack or defense and then have a captcha pop up at the crucial moment lol.

    Thanks to Infinitus for the epic B'day pressie!

    Captcha on login would be a mixed bag. We are looking at a few parameters with the captcha, along with multiple frequency schemes.

    BDOG1 - how do you answer captchas in other places? Would the ability to make the captcha frame a larger image help you?
    When you say you are testing 'some' anti-botting features does this mean the poor folks of ss57 can expect more upheaval over the coming days?

    grin true true but my comment was based on your statement..

    care to elaborate?

    i wasn't trying to have a go at u dave.. i was actually querying whether players and 'assessors' had a different game experience that therefore affected their interpretation of lag

    You guys banned half of ss57 on last weekend for 3 days. Even people who are not botting. They really don't. You don't even care to send them a personal mail why, just the same mail to everyone. People who keep paying for you deserve a PERSONAL answer. Someone from our server got a "personal answer" when he mentioned he is going to claim all the money what he spent back. They told him on which days he used 3rd party on his account. What's funny, he was in holiday mode on those days.


    And no, not saying this because I was one of them, my account was just fine, didn't get banned.

    And now this captcha?
    What about BDog? He won't be able to play unless his wife is at home becuase he can't type the captcha?

    No wonder people keep leaving our server / quitting evony. My account is in holiday for 4-5 days now, because I can't bother playing like this anymore.

    (I know about the captcha's and I got these screen shots because we still chat on skype, even if we put holiday )

    If you guys really want to do this captcha why not do it like it's there for a minute or so and it will still let us time attacks / defend or whatever we were doing? and within a minute we have to enter the letters or we will get disconnected.

    This is only going to screw up gameplay worse then it already is. Fix the lag and then try to kill off the botters. I know if I have capchas pop up while I'm trying to fight (I can't read the damn things 90% of the time) there will be some chargebacks goin evonys way lol.

    I'MMMMMMMM BAAAAAAAACCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!

    norr is basically a lesser version of shep
    hes not as awesome as me, but hell do root (nod)
