    I agree with this.

    That image was quite obviously JBrontosaurusB4. While a captcha is an imperfect solution to an imperfect problem, it is a step. I've seen personally that since implementation the server has been running significantly better.

    yes because a TON of people have gone into holiday, and bots arent working correctly atm granted

    but your data has somewhat alot of variables, so the captcha isnt totally responsible for the latency issues getting slightly better, it is atm alot of reasons why.

    and that image isnt 'quite obviously' either, its merged into another letter, how can ppl with reading difficulities read that?

    There are a lot of factors, yes, which is why I intend to watch this test for a period of longer than just a few days.

    This really made me laugh. Luckily I don't have to deal with this captcha nonsense as of yet, but I assure you I too will quit when/if it arrives on my server. The funny part being, the botters already have figured out how to bypass your captcha. Clearly you guys don't research your opponents work very well. I don't even use the program but was able to read what they are doing about it in mere minutes of searching. Your reduced lag is coming from the players you're annoying getting so frustrated they are just up & quitting.

    As usual your attempts at improving the game are only hurting the ones still trying to play it fairly...

    Its now the 4th day i have had to holiday as i can not read the captcha through my bad eyesight/disabitlity , whatever you want to call it, i have been lierally forced to holiday and i have now used 40 cents of my rl cash to do so.

    I was asked a question by dave and i replied, i have yet to have a response by him or any member of evony staff.

    Do i have to spend another 40 cents then another 40 cents to holiday everyday until this is resolved ?????

    This is so wrong and i think evony should be ashamed of themselves for treating there paying customers like this.

    But whatever carry on, keep bringing in bad fixes, keep destroying everyones game, well at least ss57 where we are the test server.

    ty again for the response i have had which is still 0.

    so your testing a system with our RL cash invested on those accts? that some people cannot see/read captcha or unable to play the game because of this?
    surely yu guys have actual test servers for things like these? other than ruining peoples gaming experiences

    Yeh, I understand why lol

    It'd be better if they fully tested it on their test server, but when you think about it, it gives more accurate results when tested in a live environment, although it probably should've been implemented on random multiple servers rather than just one.

    ty

    accurate results maybe, but factor in those who cannot read the captchas the way they are now, or gone into hols for those reasons plus others, yes the latency has died down slightly since the captcha introduced, but due to a number of factors brought on by it.
