    Lets just give it a whirl and await evony's assessment of it's effectiveness (or ineffectiveness) and see where it all leads.
    Some posters claim bots are a necessary evil to thwart what? Other botters? Rubbish!
    So realistically, botters demand the right to use bots against other botters because they get thrashed if they don?t have a bot. Yet, commonly, botters will mouth off in their respective world chat's expounding the virtues of their experience, of previous thrashings they've meted out till they're snapped and join the permanently bot/holidayed or ...
    as some often do when non-botters begin to reach parity in troop numbers etc, feign a life altering experience and move to the next available new server opening. I?ve seen it time and time again
    Bring it on evony, test it, modify it, retest it, modify it some more & lets see the botters kicked to kerb.

    This isn't intended to be a sassy answer, so don't take any of this to mean I'm putting you down...
    It's not about the norm, it's about the exception. I posted earlier about the possible consequences of this planned interruption. What if you are bluffing with an attack with your best hero in order to get someone to close gates so your timed scout gets a report...you plan to recall the bluff attack at the last second so it works, but captcha pops up, and, oops, where did your hero go? Is that an acceptable scenerio? No matter how seldom captcha might really inconvenience people or massively mess with their game/troops/heroes, if it causes a preventable in-game catastrophy, it is not acceptable. Will evony provide a system to track when captcha pops up so if one's game is messed with they can have instant access to a tech to restore what was lost? Will there be a set compensation package for those who have an hour or more of their time wasted because of what captcha could screw up in timing? I don't think so.

    I agree that the norm will not be in-game tragedy, but it is reasonable to assume that with thousands of players, they will happen. This is unacceptable when it can be prevented so easily.

    Yes, I am an idealist. I hate how criminals get off due to an error in evidence collection or the process there of, but I still value the protection it affords me or anyone who is falsely accused.

    This is a player submitted screenshot of the captcha. I will admit that some are harder to read, but you can always select a new one (or fail 4 times and get a new one with no penalty,) I am not sure if the change to add a reload button is in yet, but this is a feature we will be putting on.

    This though is representational of most of the captcha images. As you can see being color blind does not change anything, our captcha does not rely on light colors on a light background. There will always be a brightness difference between the background and the text. Example a partial red colorblind (red deficient) person like me would have problems with a light red/pink on a grey background.

    You can also see that there are no squiggly lines as some people are complaining about. I am not saying they have not seen the captcha on the server, but they have not seen the captcha on the server. ;-)
    You know that a color blind person DOESNT SEE IN BLACK AND WHITE, they see colors differently. Reds can look green, blues can look really light blue, greens yellow, depending on their type of color blindness, my step father was color blind. its not just seeing it black and white as the example above shows.

    its not a "new" system, captchas been showing up when making new accounts fo rmonths now. Maybe what your doing now is new, but what i was saying isnt, so it this going to work better than the captcha being used for making new accounts?
